Something Ridiculous: Rappers Suggest "Christian Side-Hug" For Freedom From Sinful Crotches (And Awkward Boners)

Sin.

That's what the Christian rap group in the video below had in mind when they came up with and started advocating for the "Christian Side-Hug."

What is it, exactly? Well, it's when you hug someone from the side near the hip, instead of going all full frontal on them. Basically you wrap them with your arms from the side while putting your hip against theirs.

Why? Well, apparently it's because (in their own words) "front hugs be too sinful."

Isn't there some kind of alternative here? How about tempering your enthusiasm for the hug with a modicum of distance between you (ie standing back a wee bit) and your hug-ee, instead? If the idea of being all up in their bizznatch makes you a little too uncomfortable, there are ways around it. Perhaps a fist-pump next time?

Maybe it's time to stop and consider why you were thinking about your friend's/boss'/grandma's crotch being next to yours while you were hugging him/her? Part of me wonders if these guys all ended up on awkwardboners.com (check it out, it's AWESOME) and feel they needed to come up with some kind of plan so they'd never end up so humiliated again.

Here's a video of this group performing at a Christian conference in California:
