Refers to a merely “in name only” type of hug that you give someone whom you do not actually have romantic/affectionate feelings toward, but are just “going through the motions” to be polite/agreeable.
There are various reasons why one might administer a nominal embrace; the most common situations might be (A) you are giving the other person a proxy hug as a favor for someone else, or (B) you are at a party, wedding, or other social gathering where “everyone is doing it” --- i.e., giving a hug --- to one or more “special” attendees, such as the hostess, "birthday boy/girl", the newlyweds, etc., or (C) the huggee is either mentally challenged and thus craves “cuddly attention” from everyone around him, or he is presently going through a rough time in his life, and thus he needs all the emotional support he can get.
A.k.a. "horse hug", this immensely-pleasurable (well, if you're into regularly getting "up close 'n' personal" wif half a ton of hard-muscled mammal, at least!) activity involves happily wrapping your arms around the neck of your favorite large four-legged friend and tucking your head contentedly up under his jaw and throat; if he is accustomed to doing this and is in a fairly good mood, your large buddy will often respond in kind, gently tilting his head downwards to softly squeeze you between his chin and chest.
Equine embraces can indeed be extremely satisfying and rewarding; one just needs to remember to always check his clothing for loose hairs and other unwanted "organic adornments" afterwards, to avoid spreading said "residues" to undesirable locations, such as furniture, curtains, bed-clothes, etc.
try to like or understand something you dislike, don't understand, or perhaps don't know as much as you think you know about it

"Carnal embrace is sexual congress, which is the insertion of the male genital organ into the female genital organ for purposes of procreation and pleasure." -Septimus (From Tom Stoppard's Arcadia(a play))
THOMASINA: Is carnal embrace love?
SEPTIMUS: No, it is much nicer than that.

A frequently literary euphemism for sex, especially when viewed as a special bond rather than an activity of pleasure.
Time froze as the lovers shared warm embraces.

A way of thinking in 13-year-olds - who have never lacked for anything - that stems from being raised by a toxic father, whose mother should have filed for divorce far too long ago.
- Embrace masculinity, reject modernity.
- If you want to see ripped men, just go on the gay side of the hub dude...
