Holding HandsTwo people voluntarily hold hands, apart from in the case of a handshake: - to express friendship or love,
- to enjoy physical contact (not necessarily of erotical character),
- for emotional support,
- to guide (a child, a blind, in darkness, etc.)
- to urge to follow,
- to keep together (in a crowd or in darkness),
- to help the other walking, standing or climbing up,
- to dance.
Whether friends hold hands depends on culture and gender: in the Western culture this is mainly done by women and small children. In Arab countries it is done also by men. See also Physical intimacy. External links
