Default wearing gloves

Interesting thought....I never wear gloves unless handling toxic materials or glass. This is my thinking...I would rather cut my finger using the chainsaw than have the glove come in contact with the bar and risk losing a whole hand. Anytime I operate machinery that requires wearing gloves close to the moving parts, I'd rather not wear them. It seems if the machinery snags the glove you will be in a world of hurt whereas if you have no glove on you can hopefully react fast enough to pull your hand away, causing minimal damage. Anyone agree?
