I don't shake hands

Don't know if y'all been walking around scratching your nuts or what else you've had your hands on
 
With most of my close friends, depends on the kind of greeting we're used to. It's not really a conscious decision to dap and clutch or just a regular dap/handshake, more of a habit if anything.
 
I shake hands with people I meet for the first time.

I don't dap/clutch hands with family at all, **** just feels unnecessary.
 
I purposely give stiff WASP style handshake now. Noticed non blacks wanna do the clutch and shoulder to seem like they're "down" or "bout it" (direct quotes) and blacks seem to avoid it at work to avoid being seen as "too black" by any higher ups that might be in the area. I just reserve it for family and good friends now.
 
Pretty much the same as the rest in here.

I alternate ever since the fist bump got more popular. When it initially did I'd always get caught slipping with the open hand ready to dap :lol:
 
Is the dap and clutch something that white folks generally don't do?
 
WHile on the subject of hand interactions, I HATE being offered "High Fives." Something else that is cultural.

No lie, when a High Five is offered to be, I fist bump it.

Just something about pointing my fingerTips toward the sky just feels unnatural. Nah
