Re: Hijabi
being hijabi does not automatically mean that the person is super religious. There are hijabis out there that cover but do worse things than shake hands with guys which is why he probably thought "no big deal, it's just a handshake"
don't blame other people for being "ignorant" (for lack of a better word). Maybe he just didn't know, simple.
You should have just declined and said i'm sorry, I don't do handshakes and smiled.
Re: Hijabi
There are hijabis that shake hands, and there are hijabis that don't. There was a hijabi who smoked weed with me. Its ****ing confusing. The best thing to do is to be straight up and politely tell the other person that you don't shake hands with men.
Quoted for Truth.
Personal Experience: Hijabi's were the most girls i bang around in back days... now that is ****ing confusing.
Re: Hijabi
You da man.
Re: Hijabi
I've seen that most people offer a handshake out of politeness and just because they are used to it and not necessarily pay attention to whether someone wears a hijab or not...because like someone said above, some hijabis are OK with it, so a previous experience of the guy who shook your hands may have given him the leeway to do that.
So if it is something you are uncomfortable with, just politely step back and let them know that you rather not shake hands with a na mehram. Your body language will say it all, and most people do not take offense.
Re: Hijabi
I used to make up stupid excuses like, 'I have a cold' or 'I've just eaten'. Now if I meet someone new I stand back put my hands up and quickly say 'no offense intended but I don't shake hands with men for religious reasons'.
I think as long as you offer a kind smile they should be ok.
Re: Hijabi
Are you sure you weren't flirting with that guy unknowingly? And yes, I know of hijabis that have set on gora laps (very bold I would say) and then have arms around guy friends like a langotia.

Re: Hijabi
I don’t wear hijab but a similar thing happened with me also when I was new in this country. I was hanging out with my brother, his french friend and her brother. When it was time to leave and I was saying good bye to every one the french guy just leaned over and kissed my cheek and I instantly slapped him. OMG he was so embarrassed, he didn’t knew what happened and my brother was like
yeh ki kita kuriye.
Khair when they were gone I was damn angry with my brother that what kind of friends he have, he said that it’s normal for them, it’s just a cultural thing. And I was like why are we so suppose to worry about their cultural values and why aren’t they suppose to respect ours.
Re: Hijabi
wow. i’m sorry but that was a bit out of line what you did.
that’s how ALL french people greet each other and they see nothing wrong with that. You could have POLITELY told him off instead of slapping him.
