Since you're to manly to hug Skinner?

1. It's where both guys shake hands as if they are in a vice
the first one to pull out of the handshake is a weenie. My suggestion is to just hug Skinner.

5. An older poster of a certain generation that isn't comfortable
hugging another man. Probably views handshakes as more adult,
as an action between equals. Nothing wrong with that.

7. You know how some people only shake half your hand?
That's a girly handshake. If you fully take someone's hand, that is a manly hand shake. God I hate anything but!

8. Somewhere in between death grip and cold fish.
But I'll take the death grip over the cold fish any day.

9. As per Grandad...
As per Grandad...

Strong, firm grip. Single pump is acceptable, double pump is the norm and triple pump is a bit too... touchy-feely. Look directly in the eyes and if you must smile, keep lips together and don't show teeth.

Grandad was a big, beefy, burly he-man...

10. Yes, if someone womanly would explain what a womanly milkshake is
Some guys never grow up. They just thrive on putting pressure on another man's hand. They think that all their weight lifting will replace the hands of stone a real man can get from doing Tibetan monk rituals and farming and pulling stuff out of the ground and pushing trees over and toting off a load of kids.

After about one second of feeling their girlie man attempt I usually say,"Aren't you going to give me a firm handshake?"

Then as I apply about 1% of my semi-awake power they begin to wince in agony. Eventually I break their hand and their arm starts to swell at which point I start to shake it vigorously and usually the entire arm just flies off. So now I am armed with his own arm and start to beat him over the head with it. It is at this point I remind the now wimpy guy, "You have been beaten to a pulp by a vegetarian who needs several years sleep to be at full strength." And we become best friends.

Some of this has been slightly exaggerated to maintain reader interest.
