At time shaking of hands irritates me

Hygiene is such a good thing. Shaking hands with friends or strangers is a form of cordiality or friendliness. It makes you feel welcomed.

However at time this irritates me. At times I feel like wearing gloves or avoiding Shaking hands with people altogether. Why? Makes me think some don't wash those hands very well after using the t*******t or after doing one stuff or the other. Some sneeze into those palms etc etc etc:)

Handshake, what a good way to transfer germs

Comedian Howie Mandel has the same aversion to handshakes. He rather do fist-bumps when he greets someone.

I dont like shaking hands either, especially if its a guy and hes a lot bigger than me. It can be intimidating.
 
Just shake hands.
Who touches their wallets?
Who opens and closes the door in a motel room?
Who uses the bathroom at the airport?
Get real people, handshakes are clean compared to other things we do in life.
 
that seems better.

While some palms feel very wet some are as rough as sand paper. There is a big difference between the feel of the palm of a male and that of a female

What irritates me more is when at a funeral parlor people rub their hands all over the face of the deceased and then shake hands and then proceed into an adjoining room to put their hands on buffet food...and continue shaking hands with their buddies...:chin

Intimidating in a good way. :eyebrow



Seriously though, handshakes can tell a lot about a person. Some people's hand feels like your holding a dead fish. Some people almost break your hand. You can feel how cold/ warm/ sweaty their hands are or how soft or rough they are. All those things can shape your first impression of a person.
Yeah, hygiene can be a problem, but with intact skin and a healthy immune system shaking the hand of an unhygienic person may be yucky, but it's not a big threat to our health. Just gotta wash your hands before eating, but you should do that anyway if you've touched a lot of stuff.
