Mark Consuelos connects with another man over the art of hand-shaking on ‘Live’<\/p><\/div>\n
Consuelos told Duncan that the art of the proper shake is “not too much of a squeeze,” before launching into a complaint about how others approach the hand-grabbing art form.<\/p>\n
“You know what I hate, though? Sometimes when it’s another guy, [he] comes in to shake your hand and they do this to you,” he said, lightly grabbing Duncan’s fingers.<\/p>\n
“They grab my finger, making your handshake very flaccid,” Consuelos said, looking out toward an audience member who the camera showed as laughing and pointing in agreement. “It’s a power move, right, sir?”<\/p>\n
Consuelos continued, “You know what I do? I go like that,” he said, fiercely latching on to Duncan’s hand and leaning in toward her.<\/p>\n
“That’s a strong lean-in, too,” Duncan observed, before changing the subject.<\/p>\n
Thursday’s segment wasn’t the first Live bit that hosted one of Consuelos’ complaints about things that aren’t, in his eyes, manly enough.<\/p>\n
In July, during a discussion about eating bananas, Consuelos speculated on the bathroom habits<\/a> of male British etiquette coach William Hanson, who prefers to slice the fruit instead of just eating it with his hands.<\/p>\n![\"ABC](\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/Snfx190wsKZIH5NHoh3Hlw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MjtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/entertainment_weekly_785\/ef08e33653038380e7e62d3128de0c6d\"\/)

“I’m going to say something controversial because I know you can cut it out,” Consuelos said, looking over toward producer Michael Gelman. “I say William sits down when he pees as well. Stand up, William. How about that? Be a guy!”<\/p>\n
