I as a Christian will not shake hands or have any physical contact with men other than my husband or family. I just tell them that I do not want to get germs that could make me sick, which is true.

That's very unique! I've never heard of a Christian like this. Is your real reason for not wanting to touch men the germs issue, or because you think it is not appropriate?
 
I think it is inappropriate, but some people sadly do not understand it. So if they make an issue of it I just tell them I dont want to get germs and get sick. Which is also true, so I guess both are true because I do not want to get sick.
 
That's interesting! Personally, I'd find it more offensive if someone didn't shake my hand for 'germ' reasons than for religious reasons... its strange who people think sometimes.
 
I like the hand on the heart thing... i think it sounds very femine and graceful.... now lets see if i can pull it off with some grace...

let me tell you... graceful is not my middle name :-( he he he

I used to shake hands indiscriminatly. Two years ago I got sick really bad with a flu like illness that was so bad that I ended up in the hospital ER because I was so sick and dehydrated that I could not stand up. That is when I stopped shaking hands for health reasons. I have no insuraunce and do not qualify for Medicaid. I really cant afford to get sick. But during the last year I have been more religious and examining what God wants of me and I think that unrelated men and women having any physical contact is a playground for tempation. So I do not do it all now with men.
