June 28, 201511 yr Active Members club 117 it was explained to me last night what the secret hand shake is... if you, when shaking someones hand take your middle finger and scratch the palm of the person you are shaking hands with... that means you are activo. So when the garoto shakes your hand they are trying to figure out which side of the coin you flip on. who knew the boys said this is more of a Rio thing than a Brazilian thing.... they had a good laugh when i asked about this...so i am happy to be in the know now... i am still not sure if they are pulling my leg. but i tested it out on 3 garoto, and they all smiled :-)
June 28, 201511 yr I have heard that in the U.S.! An old-fashioned thing from more closeted times here though.
June 28, 201511 yr Active Members The middle finger, you say? No wonder I didn't get into that fraternity!
July 5, 201511 yr Active Members I really think someone was pulling your leg. Figuratively and possibly literally.
