Eurofag here. Why do murifags have doorknobs instead of door handles? Whats the point?

We dont have the need to feel a phallic shaped object hundreds of times a day.
...not that there's anything wrong with that
Door handles are required on commercial buildings. Something something Cripples Act.
Knobs are just more aesthetic.
ameri-fag here. I think handles are building code required for hotels hospitals and assisted living type places. some homebuilders use them. basically they are for people with disabilities or arthritis (i.e. old people) or for people who just like the look of them.
but why the hate for the good ol' round doorknob. back at the turn of the century the round doorknobs were so awesomely detailed. today they are pretty plain and boring unless you cough up a lot of greenbacks.
Doorknobs can´t be opened with the elbow. usefull with dirty hands or when u are carrying purchases for example.
That´s much more annoying...

Valid points
It's part of an effort to thwart our inevitable overlords.

Common stuff is common because it is common. That is, when you have used knobs all your life, when practically all the houses you've visited have knobs and when the hardware stores have 100 different knobs and only 1 handle style in stock, you're much more likely to get knobs as well.
Murifags use both, just like Eurofags use both.

Hah! True, true! But you can use your knee/elbow to open a HANDLE. You have to put shut down to use a stupid KNOB.

>Tell me you are squeezing the doorknob with your butt cheeks and then give it a wiggle so it opens
What did he mean by this?
I use my knee to open the kitchen door when I have my hands filled with cups of tea.
This is why we UKish people eschew doorknobs.
Just watch jurassic park, then you'll understand

A doorknob promotes a strong handshake.

A 7 ft tall man has elbows that higher off the ground than a 4ft man, dingus. Needing to lean over far enough to grab your ankles just to elbow a door knob is you getting fucked twice. Stay in school.
