all your five fingers are touching each other and it resembles a crane hook in kung fu.

Maybe it was just someone holding thier hand limp wrist to imply that someone was gay.
In what context?
Maybe the person wanted to tweak some nipples. =D

I believe it’s supposed to imitate the beak, as well.
I’d assume it means the same as the crane, which I think is supposed to symbolize offensiveness, yet calm, elusive agility.
plus you're supposed to have gathered enough chi in the tips of your fingers so that it'll strike a person hard like a crane's beak

I think you are mistaken...the fingers are connected. But the last two are seperate from the first three. This is to look like the mouth of this bird. Then you force your hand into the person.

Well that is something completely different. But it may not be untrue but what I said was true as well.
