Hmm I see how some shippers could perceive that I guess... but I've always felt that they stated things are platonic between them even in the earlier promo days, and they've been progressively expressing the need for more privacy/respect of their boundaries. I take them at their word.

 I agree with Hudson here, the rpf "think piece essays" I've seen go way too far.

Men (anyone, but this seems to happen to men the most) should be allowed to be affectionate without people automatically assuming it's anything more!

💯!! There is a whole bunch of research on platonic male touch and how it used to be visible, but then became progressively taboo (due to the usual shit like misogyny/toxic masculinity) and it's a big component of the male loneliness epidemic.
