'''Safehand''' is an [[Alethi]] term for a female's left hand. According to [[Vorin]] cultural tradition, it is improper for a woman to leave her safehand uncovered.{{wob ref|12977}} Upper-class women adhere to this tradition by wearing a sleeve that covers their left hand loosely.{{book ref|twok|3}} Often the sleeve has a safepouch sewn on the inside for women to store personal objects.{{book ref|twok|3}} It is considered extremely rude to open another woman's safepouch.{{book ref|twok|39}} Lower class women and women of non-Vorin or only nominally Vorin countries, such as [[Thaylen]]{{book ref|twok|8}}{{book ref|twok|i|4}} women, wear a glove so they can use both hands freely.{{book ref|twok|3}}{{book ref|twok|6}} Prostitutes often wear no covering at all{{book ref|twok|46}} or will wear fingerless gloves on their safehands in order to be provocative and show others who they are before being hired out.{{book ref|sa2|45}}▼

In an interview, [[Brandon Sanderson]] stated that the tradition derives in part from "a famous book written by an artist who claimed that true feminine pursuits and arts were those that could be performed with one hand, while masculine arts were those performed with two hands, in a way associating delicacy with women and brute force with men." {{wob ref|4447}}▼

According to [[Ben McSweeney]] it was not originally intended for Safehands to become a sexual and nudity taboo. After the release of TWoK however fans made the connection themselves and Brandon worked it into the world as a result.<ref>https://wob.coppermind.net/events/406/#e14095</ref>▼
