Can you shake hands with local girls if you travel in Pakistan?

Are u plain stupid who cannot grasp Pakistani culture or r u being a typical Indian troll on purpose?

The Pakistani women themselves would decline to have physical contact(such as a handshake) with strangers unless they really have to like in a professional setting or something. It has nothing to do with men forcing women...it is the culture. Something u as an Indian don't understand is women are also just as much part of a culture as men are. Men don't dictate cultural norms and practices. A culture arises from what a society(made up of men and women) perceives to be acceptable practices. So why don't u go learn and educate urself instead of showing ur ignorance here?
No, it is just the cultural difference that he cannot envisage with women in his culture wearing half naked saarhis, showing off their belly buttons to everyone, rubbing through strangers on their way to work and home, gyrating sensuously in public which ultimately fuels their rape industry to such a modesty where the women don't shake hands with stranger men.... is something he may not be able to wrap his head around.

No way we don't want to get beaten from sandal [emoji150] and in Islam ladies don't prefer to do handshake they will pass a smile and if she is in a relationship with you otherwise you are going to be in trouble.

Even we don't shake hands. It's a culture here not to shake hands with ladies, and the culture has been adopted from religion.

But it's not like someone will start beating you for that.. At most, the lady will smile while avoiding handshake.. and that's it.. The people around her will also not be bothered about that..


Nahi nahi yaar.. People don't beat for these small things..

But if someone tries to harass a lady, then for sure he is in trouble..
I remember benazir Bhutto doing namasthe when mark Taylor held out to shake her hand during presentation ceremony of 1996 world Cup...ot was just a show off though for masses...she was educated in London..

She was following her societies ancient costume and tradition without know exactly why they did, what they did.

Few women shake hands.... most don't..

Benazir's show was for public consumption.. just like how she used to put "dopatta" on her head when in Pakistan..

"Namastay" sign was still better than a handshake..
