Really? How sweet! You don't often see that here in North America. I bet you hold hands almost all the time without shame or embarrassment when you are out with friends, or generally in public.
Good post. Nice screen name.
So how does anyone get anything done with only one hand? You don't have to clean the house together, do you?
Touch is a very important part of being alive.
It's one of the 5 senses for a reason.
From what I've seen, Americans hug each other a lot, but they rarely hold hands for long. Germans seem to touch each other, but never hold on, the Irish/Scottish fight to show love, and the Polish/Ukrainian hold hands.
Latin Americans hold hands among friends or siblings much more than is done by people in the U.S. or Canada.
Actually, my husband holds my hand when we’re in a mall, but that’s just to prevent me from going shopping.
