Right on! I have what could be described as a firm handshake. It is not my intent to intimidate anyone. What Im saying is that Im a confident and direct person. In my 67 years of life experience Ive found, for the most part, that people with weak handshakes are................weak. Ive also observed that people with weak handshakes tend to be leery of people with firm handshakes. One could make the argument that the weak hand shaker is intimidated by the firm hand shaker. But in my experience weak hand shakers who, generally rely on deceit to get ahead, know the firm hand shaker will be a threat to their deceit.I've been less-than-firm hand shaker and not from any timidity or deceitful character. I disagree with everything you wrote as it all goes against my 65 years of experience.

Yo, decimon—Please note the caveat in my post “in general”. There are always exceptions to almost everything. There are real reasons for a “weak” handshake. They include medical issues like arthritus or whatever.
I am curious though, why would one choose to shake hands weakly if it was not necessary due to some malady?
