It just bothers me so much when people do handshake with their left hand. I can't stay quiet (╯TДT)╯╧╧

    Don't get it. What's bothersome to it?

    A Left handed handshake, or sometimes refered to and known as Scout handshake, is a handshake is a short ritual in which two people grasp one of each other's left hands, and most cases accompanied by a brief up and down movement of the grasped hands.


    The most popular specific use of the left-handed handshake is the coined Scout Handshake. Scouts across the world all greet each other with a left-handed handshake and that it is a sign of trust and friendship.

    Enough? They did it with left as a sign of trust and friendship (which is their intention to start)

    I am used to handshakes with right hand.
    Using the right hand is generally considered proper etiquette.
    It's commonly done upon meeting, greeting, congratulations, expressing gratitude, or completing an agreement, with purpose to convey trust, respect, balance, and equality.
    It's just what i am used to, and i was taught that doing handshakes with the left hand is rude and it's just not correct.
    So thanks Mihawk, i didn't know that and i learned something new!

    You're welcome ^^

    And @Anonymous... you're wrong. I am left-handed and as one I also do handshakes with the right hand. It's something you learn very early when you're left-handed since it's common to do it with the right hand.
