I didn't read most of this thread as it is mostly a bunch of boring shit, but all you fucks that think hand shaking is stupid or whatever, need to get the fuck out of the US. It is a form of respect. All my Russian, French, and German friends I know, all shake out of RESPECT. Not because of some social norm that you are attributing it to. ugh


But "shaking out of respect" IS that social norm you are trying to disassociate this practice from. Yes it's respectful and I actually shake with my right more than my left only because my body has been used to those interactions. But getting chastised for using my left hand is just outright annoying and pathetic.

Well said. Ditto and I love you!

No miss retard. I was saying that the REASON for shaking with the right for the original reason (as a sign that you are not holding a weapon) has long since dissipated. I'm talking about the god damn weapons. Jesus what's up with your tampons they're a bit wet you need to change them duders.

it's a gesture and sign of respect for your fellow human being


Yeah and also disrespect for people who shake with their left.

the argument about the 78rpm... i'm not even going to touch that one, that's just a poor example


It's a perfect analogy and you're a perfect idiot. I win.

in many cultures, the left hand is associated with cleaning one's ass after shitting, and the right was used to eat.

Toilet paper didn't always exist.

Are you one of those people that get up in arms when someone says "how you going?" as a greeting when they're not really asking the question? or when they say "see you later" when you know they won't?

What do you think you're doing with this? raging against the machine of social norms with your left hand? It's a pointless pathetic little argument about nothing. I understand that is what the internet is all about, so I say again, go plant a tree you moaning little bitch.

with the amount of kids in the states offing themselves i don't think the sign of you "holding a weapon" has been lost, i'm more scared of kids with guns now than i ever was before, and i don't even live in the states

System J...it's hilarious the way you're getting fired up.

We're not OPPRESSING lefties, and definitely not saying "we're right handed so EVERYONE should conform to us". It's just a matter of ease, the same way everyone drives on the same side of the road.

When I said I get offended when people shake left, I didn't mean all the time, I meant like if you're at a club and a right-hander has their drink in their right, so gives you that disrespectful "twist at the shoulder so the palm on the left hand is facing the same way it would on a right hand" handshake. Put your fucking drink down and shake properly, cock.

If I was in a work environment and a lefty tried to shake with the left (with their right hand free of other tasks), I'd be surprised, but wouldn't think they were strange or rude.

Still...limp wrist = I think less of you.
