Really, it's silly. If I just wiped my butt, it's possible that I'm putting my shit into your hands. Weird.

One thought is that the "gentleman's handshake" began when a father would take the hand of his daughter's potential suitor and use his other hand to place on his elbow. The goal was to feel for epitrochlear lymph nodes, the presence of which would signal a likely syphilis infection (which probably wouldn't sit to well with dad).

Fascinating. I was about to explain that the handshake was thought to be more sanitary than its immediate predecessor, the Bulgarian butt rub.
