That's funny, Rue... I got fist bumped the other night by a man. He put his out to shake, and as I apologized for my hands being dirty (I was at an event rolling cigars, so wet and covered in tobacco) and reached for my towel that I keep for just that reason, he says, "Well, fist bump then!" like it was a good alternative. I actually thought it was rather creative on his part, but I didn't think it any more appropriate under the circumstances!
lol What an odd thing to do.... I would have just said "how about just a wave?"
I've never seen anyone do it -- must be a cultural thing that hasn't reached this far yet. I'm not too keen on handshakes, either -- we New England folk tend not to care for too much physical contact. Personally, I prefer a deep, subservient bow, preferably accompanied by "I await your orders, madam."
:rofl: I would too, but I don't see it happening anytime in the near future.
