Can You Shake it Like This?
Wet, weak, squirmy or harsh. Those are not good attributes for a manly handshake (or a womanly one, for that matter). Lifehacker points to an AskMen article on how to give a good handshake. Now, I’m not such a fan of Askmen, since I’ve always thought of it more as a lad-mag site like Maxim or FHM than about teaching ways to act like a real man. But this is sound advice.
“A handshake is a very simple gesture, but can be a determining factor in interviews and social gatherings. Just make sure you firmly shake the person’s hand and look at them straight in the eye.”
I may actually have to re-think my stance on AskMen, since they do offer a good amount of manly advice in their How to succeed in life section.
