Anyway, my T doesn't even do handshakes, let alone hugs...(unless I guess when you terminate? who knows)....but one of the other T's that works with him hugs me all the time...EXCEPT when my T is around. He told me that he doesn't hug clients around T because my T frowns upon hugging clients.

My T does handshakes on occasion, but even that feels strange to me. Usually he offers me a coffee or sometimes a tea which is A-Ok with me (maybe this is our version of a hug?).
Is the hugging angle more of a female desire? Any males on here like hugs from a same sex therapist? I would personally feel uncomfortable with a hug from my T (he's a dude).
I think your T should beat up the non-hug T
