Why do guys compare hand sizes with a girl?

[gayesblog]

Is it true that comparing hand sizes is a form of flirting? Do you agree this? Why do guys compare hand sizes with a girl, is it for flirting?

[drummer]

Comparing hand sizes between guys and girls is often a playful or flirtatious gesture rather than a serious measurement. It's a way for individuals to create a physical connection or break the ice in a lighthearted manner. The act of comparing hand sizes can serve as a pretext for physical contact, allowing people to hold hands briefly, which can be a subtle form of intimacy or attraction.

Hand size comparison may also symbolize a desire for closeness or compatibility. People often associate larger hands with strength and protection, while smaller hands can convey delicacy and femininity. By comparing hand sizes, individuals might be seeking reassurance that their physical attributes complement each other, reinforcing a sense of attraction or chemistry.

So, I believe that comparing hand sizes is a simple and innocent way for individuals to engage in playful interaction, express interest, or explore physical connection within the boundaries of social norms and personal comfort. It's a non-verbal form of communication that can spark connections and conversations.

Honestly, I only do it on a first date for two reasons... like some of their hands are like so tiny, how in the fuck do you do it?

Secondly, it's tricky way to test a woman to see how comfortable she is in touching you, no matter how casual it is... is she comfortable with it or nervous as shit.

Like does she just touch it and pull away really fast or does she hold it here for a couple of seconds longer then need. I never pull way first, I like to watch her and see how she reacts to it.

Great answer.

[DaveJord]

@A_Bell The truth is always the best policy! ;)

[Analorr]

Men are so devious haha

[Lycirian]

Yes it is as far as they are in the state of exploring the opposite gender. Specially when the guy then looking for eye contact in the same time. Maybe the girl doesn't understand the sign but it depends all so as how far the contact/ship with the other person is.

A way to get closer, to break the touch barrier as the girls bellow already mentioned. Also, size difference is arousing to the absolute majority of people. It depends on who you do it with, I don't always see it as flirting, sometimes it's just for fun.

[Jemini_Crocket]

Thank you for the MHO :)

[katiesmuff]

Guess I never realized we did that, I thought we we were putting hands together because it is a form of affection.

[Elliegirl]

It’s a cute flirt that allows him to break the touch barrier in a non sleazy way

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I find it very cute when they do that. 😊

They like to show off they are bigger, probably.

It makes them feel more masculine.

It's no secret that women pay a lot of attention to a man's hands, because they are part of his masculinity. But a woman's hands are also part of her femininity, and seeing our masculine hands right there with her feminine hands is attractive on some level. Many women today don't embrace their femininity as much as women of the past, but their hands don't know that.

[OlderAndWiser]

Comparing hand sizes is an acceptable way of touching a girl, similar to the way that adolescent boys like to tickle girls. It's not really a mature way to advance a relationship.

[AviatorTom]

There's an unscientific link between the size of a man's hands and his package. Comparing hands is the G rated version of "size does matter".

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I've had my hand size compared but not in a flirty way. Most people just like how tiny my hands are.

[HippoDino]

I'm not sure, it could be an attempt to show you they are bigger than you and can protect you, or uust an excuse for you both to touch hands?

[Anonymous]

Initially it’s so we can touch her in the beginning w out making it seem creepy. It also gives me an indication of how big my unit is going to look in her hands lol

[eastcoastgirlie]

I like to compare my hand size with guy's hand size. It makes feel more femine that a guy has bigger hands than mine.

[love_conquers_lust]

Not something I’ve initiated. Girl I was with did it when we were lying around watching a movie or something.

[Radiate143]

Getting her comfortable with innocuous touch so he can get to her glory hole.

[LiamJHayden]

I don't unless she wants to do so, and they often do because my hands approach Steve Vai sized.

[RingOfFire]

Yeah I'd say it's a form of flirting. Kind of showing you how masculine he is to stir up some hormones in either or both of you.

[RingOfFire]

Feels really good to have her delicate small hand in yours... and for her probably feels good to have his big strong hand holding hers. So it's a kind of way of showing... "see how good it would feel?"

[Friendlybro79]

There's no one answer for why an entire group of people do things typically but it could be flirting.

[Nifrayu]

I don't know. I've never gone put of my way to compare hand size. It's only ever come up in casual conversations.

[Anonymous]

I don't think I've EVER done that. But I've had a few women do that with me. I've got pretty big hands. I always assumed it was just the fact that I had big hands, nothing more.

[Matadorius]

I don't know the exact reason, but it may be because women's hands are more delicate and smaller than men's hands.

[Anonymous]

nothing else to do and to break any awkward silence?

[AnusNdaPainus]

It’s just nice to hold the hand of the girl you like

[boobliker]

yes, it is flirting and can be a way just to hold on a bit longer to the girl
