Man kiss a woman hand when somebody else introduce him to this lady? Never in street of course. Do you shake a woman hand if she don t let you know that she want this?First movement must to be to woman... Do you know how a person is(honest or not, ) only when you feel his hand when you shake his hand? Every country in the world has its own customs for meeting and greeting. Most cultures encourage handshaking Always give the impression of someone who is polite and confident by cultivating a firm, but not crushing, grip and always offer your hand when appropriate.

In my country, shaking hand when people meet is a common culture. Especially in formal meeting. I think this culture is influence from Western countries. In my country, giving your hand for shaking other when you meet someone usually believed by the society could representing your level of well mannered behaviour. That's why people here like to do it. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

You right. But not all of those people who give their hands to us are good person. Sometimes here there's robbers come to your house as guest. They show a friendly gesture but soon after you allow them to entering your house, the horror begin. Recently i read some news with those story. It's horrible.

The only time that I see someone shaking someones hand here is at a business meeting or something. A lot of people here just doesn't shake hands when they meet someone else.

In my country people shake hands and than kiss each other on the cheek three times. This isn't always done. Like for instance on a birthday party you see your family this happens. With friends you usually hug and that's it.
