Kai,some ladies can be so rude and some guys would tell U out NOT to ever shake their ladies.. As for me,I would never greet a lady I dunno... even if I know U and we dont have a close one on one relationship as friends or whatever,I would find it extremely hard to say hi 3 Likes |

If your hand has been rejected once & you stand looking like mumu you wil know how to control your hand with girls. I've experienced it once, so now I wil look at your gesture b4 strenching my hand. Some girls can be something else at times. 8 Likes |

it's just natural, I think it's the same with the ladies. when a lady walks into a room where let's say 5 girls (friends) and a guy are seated, she wld first of all greet her female friends maybe with hugs b4 she wld even attempt looking at the guys face. That's if at all she wld even recognize the guy's presence. 2 Likes |

because guys are more down to earth. you will see a situation where 2 guys great each other, they'll be like "oboy how far na, guy how you day and my guy how far etc " note that these words are mostly said when greeting each other by shaking hands but trust guys we can't say such words to a girl close by so we prefer just saying hi to shaking hands 1 Like |

I consider ur countenance b4 offering any kind of body contact, so that i wont b treated like a leper. Irespective of gender, shaking everybody u meet is an emotional risk. I prefer taking d risk with fellow sex. 1 Like |

I still believe most guys loose their sense of reasoning when an extremely beautiful lady is involved. Mind you, the have this spying glass that can single out the most beautiful ones amongst the crowd. so you cant tell me its ethical or unethical to ignore a female while greeting their male friends. Thank you. 1 Like |

Wu Zetian:My Lawd!!! What do you want me to say woman? It's not a conscious decision on my part to acknowledge the men first, it's just instinctive. And I don't ignore the woman altogether, I just wait till someone introduces us before offering my hand or if no introduction, I say hello by wearing a smile, waving slightly(exceptional) and jerking my head. Nothing sexist! 1 Like |

Courtesy courses will tell you ALLOW A WOMAN TO XTEND HER HAND FOR THE HANDSHAKE. They always say a man should not be the first to extend his hand for the hand shake |

Well, to avoid what Davido terms in his own language as "Gobe", it's more advisable to do the wave of a hand that they are usually fond of and to round it up with a parting not-too-loud 'hi'! 3 Likes |

booqee: yes i've always never understood it. A guy came not quite long, i was the only girl seated with four other boys. He waved his hand at me and said hello, and then shook hands with the guys. Tho not all guys do it, some will simply shake hands with everybody round, whether male or female This is simple. That's because a lady is spos to initiate a shake! It is rude (etiquette) for a man to initiate a shake with a lady. 1 Like |

Re: Men Ignore Ladies When Shaking Hands - Why? by Dinvictus: 1:02am On Oct 16, 2013 |
Handshake isn't our tradition (Nigerian). It is believed by the westerners to be an offer of amiable greeting whereby the one offered can choose to accept. Between a man and woman, it is expected that the lady offers a handshake and the gentleman must accept even if both are sworn enemies otherwise it is seen as rude (ungentlemanly). If a lady doesn't offer you her hand, you dont demand or snatch it by extending yours. You might be rebuffed. So coming back to our culture, (if that is what you folks want) its not gonna happen because in Africa, opposite gender of same peer group hardly interact. So choose one, behave like the westerners and offer and accept handshakes like them or stick to our traditions and hang out with only your gender or very old or young members of the opposite gender. |
