This whole thread is about stereotypes so one "loose" hand does not make any difference.
I use to have a very nice pink-fuchsia t-shirt but my wife threw it away. Women can be real monsters sometimes.

Pink Shirt Thursday
Nope, not even close, and we don't think that way.
I wear pink shirts on Fridays sometimes, pink polos on the weekends sometimes, and proper pink business shirts during the week, sometimes. Those on this board who know me know better than to question my orientation.
In my industry at least there is nothing to read into about this, it's simply to break the monotony of whites and blues and there is no confusion with that of alternate lifestyles - clues for that go far beyond pink shirts and should be pretty obvious.
Pink looks better on some people than others.
I like 'em, so does my wife, purple ones too. The girls in the office often complement them.
But I would tend to agree with the limp handshake thing, gives me the willies. Unless it's from an Asian person who in their culture would normally bow, then you have to make further assessment.
