V for Victory-Thanks


V for Victory-Thanks
Added by Alain Martineau
General Description The V sign is a hand gesture in which the index and middle fingers are raised and parted, while the other fingers are clenched. It has various meanings, depending on the cultural context and how it is presented. It is most commonly[citation needed] used to represent the letter "V" as in "victory," especially by Allied troops during World War II. It has also been used by people of the United Kingdom and related cultures as an offensive gesture (when displayed with the palm inward); and by many others simply to signal the number 2. Since the 1960s, when the "V sign" was widely adopted by the counterculture movement, it has come to be used as a symbol of peace (usually with palm outward).
