Good and Bad manners around the world

Sit up straight. Say please and thank you. Don't put your elbows on the table. Most of us were drilled from an early age in proper manners and etiquette. But once you leave your home country, things get a bit complicated. Here are some examples of how other cultures do things differently.

* In most of the Middle and Far East, it is considered an insult to point your feet (particularly the soles) at another person or to display them in any way.
* Nowadays, a bone-crushing handshake is seen as admirable in
the United States and U.K., but in much of the East, particularly the Philippines, it is seen as a sign of aggression.
* A strict Muslim woman will not shake hands with a man. A Muslim man will shake hands with a non-Muslim woman. People in these cultures generally avoid touching people of the opposite sex who are not family members.
* When dining in China, never force yourself to clear your plate out of politeness -- it would be very bad manners for your host not to keep refilling it.
* In Japan and Korea, a tip is considered an insult, rather than a compliment, and for them, accepting tips is a kind of begging.
* The "okay" sign is very far from okay in much of the world. In Germany and most of South America, it is an insult, similar to giving someone the finger in the United States, while in Turkey it is a derogatory gesture used to imply that someone is homosexual.
* Similarly, in the U.K., when the two-fingered "V for victory" or "peace" salute is given with the hand turned so that the palm faces inward, it is considered extremely rude, having a meaning similar to raising the middle finger to someone in the United States.
* Chewing gum might be good for dental hygiene, but in many parts of the world, particularly Luxembourg, Switzerland, and France, public gum-chewing is considered vulgar, while in Singapore most types of gum have been illegal since 1992 when residents grew tired of scraping the sticky stuff off their sidewalks.
* In most Arab countries, the left hand is considered unclean, and it is extremely rude to offer it for a handshake or to wave a greeting. Similarly, it is impolite to pass food or eat with the left hand. If you must know why, let's just say that, historically, people living in deserts didn't have access to toilet paper, so the left hand was used for "hygienic functions," then cleaned by rubbing it in the sand.
