Stupid question: Repeated X's and O's simply means love right? There's not some hidden sexually meaning to it is there?

Means hugs and kisses, I think X's are kisses and O's.
At least, that's what I've heard.

"Origin of XOXO"
, posted Fri 5 Apr 12:02
X -- "…One theory holds that the X stands for a kiss because it originally represented a highly stylized picture of two mouths touching -- x. Furthermore, in early times illiterates often signed documents with a St. Andrew's cross of X and kissed that X to show their good faith (as they did with any cross or the Bible, which reinforced the association). But these explanations may be folk etymology, as may the story that mathematically the X is a 'multiplier' -- in this case of love and delight." From the "Encyclopedia of Word and Phrase Origins" by Robert Hendrickson (Facts on File, New York, 1997).
