The Hover Hand

What is a hover hand? It is a phenomenon that occurs when some nerds have their pictures taken with a woman. For some reason they feel uncomfortable touching a woman, so their hand hovers about an inch from their bodies. Fascinating. I even found a website dedicated to the hover hand.

  1. Some of these hover handers are just being polite; they don't want to assume that they have permission to touch Summer Glau just because she agreed to take a photo with them. They're nice boys!

  6. It's also possible that a number of these photos are simply pictures taken before the hand movement finished. If they were taken a 1/2 second later, no hovering hand.

  10. Yeah another reason guys keep their distance is simply because they are not interested in the girl and they dont want her or other people to think they are interested. A touch can imply a lot.

  14. I would compleatly rulee out the fact that these are " nice" boys. the whole the pic was taken early thing is a possibility but highly doubtful. I belive these young men are just insecure and over not really comfortable with women yet. when they lose their virginity at whatever extremly high age I'm sure there hands will lose whatever flying ability they may possess...

  15. I'd say that some of these pics are taken too early. Some obviously not :--DD
