Definately don't adjust your handshake for a woman vs a man. It's insulting. Then again don't try to "overpower" other men by bringing them to their knees by your grip. When I find a person who won't give me a solid handshake (i.e. so limp that I feel like they're trying to slip their hand out of mine the moment I take theirs) then I sometimes will grip harder and hold on longer just to make them uncomfortable. So beware - you try to mollycoddle me and I will let you know I'm not a wus. Granted I'm not one of those that tries to grind your knuckles together but I will simply give you a firm handshake and I will do my best to keep you from sneaking out of giving me one back.
