Because a man will come and fill those gaps by holding your hands...

If you mean gaps when your fingers are together, that just means your fingers are crooked or that your finger joints are large. If you mean the spaces when they are open, then your fingers would be useless with them.

because if there weren't spaces it would be harder to pick stuff up plus it would look weird

because with a gap your thumb would not be apposible it would stay in one place and we would not be able to grip anything.

How do you say time in sign language?

One way is to spell it out. For the T, you just put your thumb in between your first and second fingers and then put all of your finger down. For the I, you just put up your pinky. For the M, you put your thumb in between your ring finger and pinky and then put all your fingers down. For E, you just put every finger down other than your thumb and then you simply place your thumb under your fingers but make sure your thumb is still visible.
