For one who's never been to Hawaii, Aloha means...
A way to say hello and mean it and a way to say good-bye without. It means sun-shining and sand filled beaches with the promises of sights you've never dreamed imaginable. It means cheap smelly flowers wound together into a wreath of relaxation. It means a refuge from the cheap smelly crap seen everyday. It means a way to say hello and mean it and a way to say good-bye without.
Like I said, I’ve never been to Hawaii but that’s what Aloha means to me.

Yeah, you're wrong.
I was brought up by parents who are not very physically affectionate, but I was never taught that it was bad, weak, or womanish.

Yep, you've never been to Hawaii. Nothing's cheap here.

Cheap meaning doesn't cost many 'dollars'? I hope that's what you mean as I didn't intend to slight anyone with 'cheap'. I was just playing on the words thrown out before... : )
