Holding Hands

Holding hands is a form of physical intimacy involving two or more people. It may be romantic, but it doesn't have to be depending on the culture and the time.
== Muggle Aspects ==
In Western culture within the Muggle Community, spouses and romantic couples often hold hands as a sign of affection or to express closeness. Non-romantic friends may also hold hands, although acceptance of this varies by culture and gender role. This is often seen in terms of romantic relationships, as handholding is often used in the early stages of dating or courtship to express romantic interest in a partner.
== Wizarding Community ==
Their system is similar to the Muggle Aspect of this physical intimacy, but there are more strict conditions to follow. For instance, non-romantic friends may hold hands if it passes approval by the Ministry of Magic. Death Eaters illegally dating someone wouldn't hold hands in public, as this rises an alarm to the Ministry and the Wizarding Community.
