An Australian MP was served with an official complaint for hugging someone.

Encouraging hypersensitivity to the slightest act of affection — on the grounds that affection hints at sex — is cruel and threatens to ruin lives for no reason.

I understand how some hugs can be uncomfortable. We all need to learn to b sensitive to whether someone else wants to be hugged. But that's not as easy as falling off a log, since people may cover up their preference not to be hugged. Nobody can be expected to read minds.

So we have to forgive people for small errors like that.
