The Hand Peace Sign, Ever notice... Options

[DaTru KataLYST]

You know the sign we make when we want to symbolize peace? The one where you have your pointing and middle fingers up and the rest down.

I noticed that if you do the sign with the palm facing away from your body, it's fobbish [not fob, theres a difference], HK, trademark Asian, and tourist style (I add all these bcuz ppl wanna bitch so much about the terms of use) and then when you do the sign with the palm facing towaards your body, it's gangstish (im not gonna say gangster cuz i doubt gangsters do it)


Hmm..after typing this it doesn't seem to make sense. So bear with me.

Um........not realli.....

The peace sign is like a trademark for asians, especially when its photo time.
Its not really fobbish style, and its not only HK ppls who do it, you see Japs, Koreans, Indonesians all doing it!! I'm a HK person myself, and I don't think its fobbish at all, since the majority of asians do it.

Gangsters are the ones that do the East side(pointing, middle, ring finger on the side to look like an E), west side(pointing, middle and ring finger crossed, pinky to look like a W) thingos...........that sort of stuff.........<= dun ask ppls, I see those signs heaps of times each day.....=_=".....either gangsters AND just wannabe gangsters..........

One other thing a frd told me, that the reason the middle finger's rude is coz it looks like a guys genital, whereas the peace sign with the palm facing towards the body is the girls genital. I never thought it was true until recently when I saw ppls sticking the middle finger up at others....... and NO! I'm not being a sicko!
