I'm a late twenties, once divorced, single gal who has certainly been curious about sex with other women, but never acted on it. However, I have been aware since my late teens of an attraction to other women's hands, particularly well manicured, feminine ones, like my own. I'm somewhat obsessive about my own hands, and I do the parafin, etc. to keep them as soft as possible. I first became aroused in college when a female roomate gave me a very sensual hand massage, and I have had this "fetish" since. It's not all female hands, but certain pretty ones that look soft, and when I see a pair like that I'll try to initiate some kind of action, such as a handshake or looking at a ring. If I'm lucky , perhaps a hand massage or some fun hand holding. I've noticed that women respond differently to the touch of another woman's hand. Some are uncomfortable and tend to want to pull away right after a handshake , while some are neutral and some will linger the touch and really seem to enjoy the sensation of the soft skin on soft skin. I have met women who , after I make the 1st hand touch, will find a way to touch my hands several times after. I was at a wedding last weekend where a slightly tipsy bridesmaid pulled me out to the dance floor. A few minutes later, a slow song came on, and I waited to see her reaction, whether she would return to her table or want to slow dance. To my delight, she put one hand around my waist and one hand facing me, and I placed my palm against hers and we slowly interlocked fingers, locking our soft palms. She immediately complimented me on the softness of my paws. I told her I had a parafin dip that morning, and she said, oh my god, so did I !, and we both looked at our intertwined hands. She had really pretty hands, with long slender fingers and a french manicure. She gave my hand a nice squeeze, and she gently caressed my thumb with hers as we swayed slowly to the music. After the slow song, we introduced ourselves and shook hands, clasping them for a long time before slowly dragging palms and fingers as our hands seperated. She went off to her boyfriend so I had no chance of an interlude that night. I have only discussed this feeling with one girlfriend, who happens to be a masseuse, and she thinks this a pretty common thing with alot of women- I'm not sure however. She says that some female clients of hers ask for longer hand massages and she has a manuever where she gently takes the woman's wrist and pulls her toward her back, and some of the women will intentionally slide their hand into hers, and some will even interlock fingers. She will usually indulge them and do plenty of palm to palm contact. And the vast majority of them are married heterosexuals. I was having my nails done out of town a few months ago and had a young russian girl do my hand massage, and she had hand model quality hands, and the softest I've ever felt. She could tell I was enjoying her touch and gave me close to 10 minutes on each hand, and I about had an orgasm. As an excuse to do further hand holding with her, I asked if she wanted a hand massage since she always was the one who had to give and not receive. She gladly accepted and it gave me an opportunity to sensually recipricate, and I slid my fingers in and out of hers and gave her a very sexy hand massage. She didn't want me to stop! Anyway, just wanted to know if anyone else has felt this way.
