I too prefer fisting over jerking

Fist bumps are considered juvenile and too "relaxed" by a lot of folks.

That is just fine. Handshaking is just weird and unsanitary

I hate handshakes. Never liked touching people's dirty hands. Fist bump or bow is my preferred greeting.

Why? Because I don't like being forced to hold some sweaty hand? Yeah, so wild.

you ancestors just turned on their graves btw, just sensed the legends. You out here in 2025 afraid of some handshakes lol. The legendary saying ''soft men create soft times'' has never been so true as today. Just sad.

Where does it say ‘afraid'? You seem like the type that would force handshakes, why does someone you'll likely never meet, not wanting to shake hands, offend you so much you need to make up a little story? Fk off bro, keep your clammy mits to yourself.

I'm not the one making up little scenarios because someone else said they don't want to touch strangers hands :)

by Anonymous 2 days ago

I mean you are saying you don't want to touch someone's sweaty hand...considering not every hand is sweaty .....so I mean you are

You are literally making up little scenarios. The majority of people don't have sweaty hands. What is wrong with you? Go to the doctor and get checked out lol, drenched in sweat for no reason is worrisome. Get checked, pal.

For my grade 8 graduation, we literally spent half a day practicing handshakes with our teacher critiquing us and telling us how important a proper handshake is. Used the term "dead fish" a lot and criticized the boys if we weren't firm enough And after all of that, when I went to shake my principals hand, he wrapped his hand around my fingers and squeezed before I had a chance to grab his palm.

Happens often, I have big hands and a lot of times people grip just my fingers because they don't realize there's more hand. Other times I swallow their hand with mine

I honestly barely remember fist bumps being a thing prior to covid.

Handshake in a professional setting, fist bump your bros. I once had an interview candidate try to fist bump me. Like, we're not bros, bro. Not yet anyway. He didn't get the job.

A handshake is a bit More formal but you get a better judge of character. It's like strong eye contact. Handshakes are just more personal. If I'm seeing a friend off or someone I respect I want a handshake.

I can't stand them. Im a girl with a weak grip and half the time I shake hands with a man, it hurts.

For me after working in kitchens for almost 20 years I like the elbow bump. Either that or the asian business bow.

by Garnetdickens 2 days ago

I've never liked handshakes. Even worse are hugs. Fist bump is the only greeting I accept. Recently on a family meeting I used it for everyone. 16, 50, 80 years old. No exceptions.

they must think you a sissy now or smth

Like I care what they think XD

by Embarrassed_Clue506 2 days ago

Haha, yeah. I get the irony of that but it's less drama when I just participate in this pathetic theater by not talking to anyone for three hours than refusing to go entirely.

by Embarrassed_Clue506 1 day ago

I hate fist bumps so much, they make me cringe every time. I also hate handshakes. Why do I need to touch the hands of strangers at all?

Why are we touching masturbation hooks at all?

by Anonymous 1 day ago

that sounds like something going on with you honestly

by Specialist_Chart 1 day ago

I don't like touching people.

Ok, but if you see hands as "masturbation hooks", that's on you.

by Specialist_Chart 1 day ago

And if you don't find my words funny, that's on you. We all have our burdens.

just don't make that joke in front of anybody who you don't want to think you're a weirdo.

by Specialist_Chart 1 day ago

Anybody that knows me knows I'm a weirdo. I embrace the absurd. You sound mad. Are you mad? Maybe you need to masturbate.

That joke isn't as cute as you think it is

When I see someone extend their wretched arm out for a handshake, I worry they're gonna judge me like "ew her palms are sweaty." So my palms get sweaty, ANTICIPATING THE JUDGEMENT ABOUT MY SWEATY PALMS

Dude I'm so glad someone is on the same page as me about this. I almost exclusively fist bump because it's also impossible to misinterpret for another type of handshake. If u go in for a handshake, some people might think you're going for a dap up or a handshake pivot into a dap
