Today, my dad met my boyfriend. It took less than 10 seconds for him to accuse my boyfriend of being a "queer" because his handshake was "too limp". FML

Today, my dad met my boyfriend for the first time. He soon "casually" took a huge knife from the kitchen drawer and told my boyfriend that he's always wondered what it'd be like to stab someone. FML
Today, I finally let my parents meet a boyfriend of mine for the first time ever. My dad mentioned how he was happy to finally meet him, because for the past 4 years he'd thought I was gay. FML
Today, I introduced my dad to my boyfriend. I gave my dad the middle finger and he thumped me on the head, as we've been playfully doing for years. My boyfriend got all mad and tried to fight my dad. FML
Today, my boyfriend met my parents. Within minutes, my dad managed to verbally sever his balls and reduce him to tears, "just for fun" apparently. FML
Today, I introduced my new boyfriend to my parents. Everyone knows he's into the emo scene, but this didn't stop my dad from slowly looking him up and down, then saying, completely deadpan, "You never told us you were a lesbian, honey." FML
Today, my boyfriend met my dad for the first time. The first thing he said to him was, "You're an idiot for dating my daughter." FML
Today, I introduced my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. My dad took one look at him, sighed and said, "You deserve someone better. Someone who is responsible, and has their priorities straight in life." Beyond upset, I told my dad that I love him. My dad disgruntledly responded, "I was talking to him." FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend, and to say it went badly is an understatement. My mom went outside to relax by chain smoking and the shouting, and the screaming only ended when my dad took my boyfriend by the scruff of the neck and threw him out the front door into the street. FML
Today, it became apparent that my father knows more about my boyfriend than I do because he spends so much time interrogating him. FML
Today, after dating for almost a year, I decided to introduce my parents to the man I was sure I'd fallen in love with. When dad saw him, his and my boyfriend's face completely dropped. I asked them what was wrong because I could feel the discomfort. Turns out, I'm dating my dad's drug dealer. FML

Tell your dad "Fortunately for me, he's other thing isn't too limp". I bet he won't think he's a queer anymore!! He might kill him tho...

A firm handshake resembles confidence. But in no way does a limp handshake mean someone is a queer...

Right or wrong, Fathers tend to mark their territory Tell the BF to never show fear, fathers smell fear, and it brings on a feeding frenzy You can't fix stupid, and you can't always fix ignorance

XD dude making sure your guy has a firm handshake should be the first thing you make sure before you let him meet your dad. If you're a man or even a woman and you have a weak handshake then you might as well slap yourself

Lol, that is just pure awesome. My dad does the same thing with my sisters, but out of humor of course.

Your dad could just be establishing the pick order as the Alpha Male. Which the guy should respect depending on where they are. And your boyfriend might have given a flimsy hand as a sign that he submits to your dad Alpha role.

As rude and offensive as that was, I really can't say I blame your dad entirely, OP. A "limp fish" handshake is the worst, and can give the person whose hand your shaking a really bad impression of your self-confidence.

When another man gives you the limp fish hand shake it is highly disrespectful and a insult
