Based on the legal norms in my country, esp. after revolution that media emphasizes on such norms, any touch between a man and woman is prohibited and is considered "bad" social behavior. Under such circumstances, the only thing that can justify such "touch" and prevent judgments is being siblings/father-daughter/mother-son etc. I myself feel much comfortable when I see such performance between siblings! I know it is weird for you and for many in the West but it is how the normativity of many people in my country is formed. However, I believe the norms change fast and I have witnessed many of those changes in Iran.سلمیhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15702146408227489466noreply@blogger.com
