My dog came up and licked my daughter's hand.
She remarked "It's like he is shaking hands."
I said "Yeah, he uses his tongue to clean his butt and great you. That is like shaking hands."
I'd be fine if hand-shaking went away. I don't need to touch people to say hello.

Exactly. Agree that it's ridiculous.

Sure we all could, but I have seen way to many people not washing hands before

Great. So shake hands and then later on use your hand sanitizer. Or how about..

Not really stupid. We have other ways to greet and welcome without touching.

Really? Like what? What form of "physical" interaction is there to greet......

In what way? It's human touching with people we dont live with.
ABCoug
4/9/20 9:31am
So nobody should have sex again? That’s sounds good for the human race.

Yes society should prefer fathers. Not sure I suggested no sex.

Sex does not equal handshakes.

So why is it a strawman then?

For the vast majority, the number of people they have sex with is vastly lower

And yet your risk of health issues with sex with a stranger is exponentially

And yet the reward is much greater, which is why people still do it.

If handshake was nearly as fun as sex it wouldn't die either, well maybe in

I've been wanting the tradition to die and it had nothing to do with disease.

That is a lot of e's.

Why? What is wrong with a handshake?

This video shows some of the reasons.

Then what's your motivation if it is "not" due to disease/illness?

Just watch people at church. They wipe snot off their kids face, and then go out

The fecal transmission alone should make anyone think twice about shaking hands

Fine idea if voluntary. Terrible if done by force of law.

Please let handshaking die... please.... if you want a compromise then I'll yield at a fist-bump.

Bowing.

a short bow is superior. for most in the US it seems weird, but knowing what we know now, bowing is superior.

Then how will we display our dominance when we meet someone?

Well, if you do the "thumbs up," you could have a thumb war to show dominance
