As with so many simple gestures, holding a partners hand can express so much.
In regards to this, scientists have identified six main hand holding positions between partners.
Furthermore, according to some of these researchers, the employment of each of these individual positions denotes a more abstruse meaning.
Good folks: When with a partner, describe exactly HOW you prefer to hold their hand.
For instance, do you prefer your hand over theirs or else under? Do you interlock fingers?
Do you hold hands whilst in bed with a partner?
Indeed, do you interlock fingers during lovemaking?
Please do reveal all my fine peeps  |

Quite often interlocking when riding cowgirl.
If walking together, my hand facing palm forward, interlocking, so they are leading.
In a crowd (like a festival) whoever is leading, like a parent and child kind of hold, but looser, with fingers rather than whole hand. |

I don't know, to be honest.
My husband held my hand twice, that I can remember.
I think I've only had one other man hold my hand once in public and all times it was the palm against palm, how you hold a child's hand when crossing the road.

I tend to interlock fingers with my palm facing upwards (under a partners).
This ostensibly designates me as more submissive in a relationship but highly affectionate…..or possibly a secret Mason….  |

I adore hands. They are so often ignored but they can be so sensitive and tell so much.
Tracing over the lines in the palm, stroking his fingers knowing its making him think of something else.
Just almost but not quite when little fingers touch together and it's just enough to give me a rush of arousal.
I love hand holding in all its forms. Those beautiful moments of tenderness as fingers interlock as you just chat, the reassuring hand hold that says "I've got you"
The one where he lifts my hand in his and kisses it. And all of the ones in between and the ones in the heat of the moment.
Hands held above my head as he kisses me or above his as I slide down his cock. There's a little bit of vulnerability or control at play at those points. Which is frankly, hot as fuck for someone like me who doesn't like to feel vulnerable!
Those times when you're lost in what's happening, on the edge of an orgasm and your hands just seem to find each others and fingers, they fit together perfectly as if they are seeking each other out . It almost makes it more intense for me.
Its just a lovely intimate thing.
It doesn't happen nearly enough because I guess people possibly associate it with too much intamacy or perhaps just don't think about it as they are it as boring.
From the tip of my fingers, over my wrists and all the way down my arm is super sensitive and it has been on everyone I've ever met. It's a wonderful place to touch, kiss and explore.
So yes. Handholding is definitely a thing for me

I like a normal hand grab. I don’t particularly like interlocking fingers as that is a bit too grabsy and can make your hands sweat. Plus when you have to extract from the hand holding, interlocking fingers can get “stuck” a bit.

If they’ve got some gnarly knuckles you might need to call the fire-brigade to cut you free |

"I love holding my Husbands hand whilst a guy fucks me....does this count?
Mrs R"
Absolutely
Although the scientific study doesn’t specifically list that one (sadly!) I can likely speculate that in holding your husbands hand, you maintain and reinforce your intimate link with one another. |

Okay, that’s kinda hot. I have to admit.
.
"Tracing over the lines in the palm, stroking his fingers knowing it’s making him think of something else."
I’ve lost count of how many times you’ve driven me to distraction doing that. Halfway through a conversation and I forget where I am and what I’m saying because of the way you’re stroking my fingers.

Update: I’ve just found a whole slew of extra hand holding position variants in addition to the main six, via the wonders of the internet.
Some of these appear to resemble Kung Fu, Chin Na joint locking techniques(!) and look even less comfortable

25 years together and we still hold hands whenever we are out walking. Be it the supermarket, school run or just a walk. Palm to palm with J leading. And if our daughter is with us, she is oftem holding both our hands inbetween us. I feel we are closely connected this way. A sense of love and protectiveness for each other.
A close friend and I often link arms when out for a walk too. We have both been through our battles and have supported each other throughout. I see our arm link as a bond. We are best friends and always have each others backs. Support the hard times, laugh at the good times. Always there for each other.

I love the extra connection that comes with holding hands and not in the physical sense.
More of a feeling of safety as if they are saying 'I've got you' and that can be during sex, or just sitting on the sofa.
I'm not sure I pay attention to the specific mechanics as it depends on the position. But yeah I love hands |

I hadn’t given it a thought. When walking, I believe I hold Tones’s hand with my palm over hers; sometimes our fingers are interlocked.
I believe it applies in other activities also.

"Intertwined fingers say, ‘I’m into you. I want to get closer—and I can’t quite get close enough,’” says Coleman. When you’re both willing to grab each other’s hand like this, it says you’re on the same page with wanting to develop or continue a strong connection."
Definitely true in that moment. |

For a first date it is clearly also a sign of being absolutely at ease and comfortable in the other persons company to - which bodes wonderfully for you both in the future |
