For the most part I would have to say so.
Emotionally, very much so. Physically, rarely. I'm not a natural hugger.
My family wasn't very physically or emotionally affectionate. Over the years, we've grown more so in both areas. I thrive on physical touch, so I've had to indoctrinate my lady-wife into that way of life.

No and no and I'm always afraid that I'll mirror that behavior with my own family.
