...............Ask Them to Hug?

Upworthy's comments:

Not sure if you heard, but there was a big craze around the "First Kiss" video where a filmmaker set up two strangers to meet and kiss like they'd just finished drinks and were heading back to someone's apartment. The Gay Women Channel on YouTube decided to have a little fun with it. They found some mildly homophobic but open volunteers to meet gay people and have a very safe, platonic hug. The results were surprisingly heartwarming. Especially at 2:07. And 2:31. And 2:44. And then at 3:00, I just laugh.

I got the original link from George Takei's Facebook page. His comment:

Well, this was impossible to stop watching. Once the barriers are broken, understanding and compassion may take root.
