take a bow? social rules?

• Strangers being introduced shake hands, as in Western societies, but
  • Bow toward each other, in Korea, Japan and China
  • Do not bow at each other, in the Jewish tradition
  • In the United States, eye contact, a nod of the head toward each other, and a smile, with no bowing; the palm of the hand faces sideways, neither upward nor downward, in a business handshake.
  • Present business cards to each other, in business meetings
• Click heels together, in past eras of Western history^{[citation needed]}
• A woman's curtsey, in some societies
• In the Middle East, never displaying the sole of the foot toward another, as this would be seen as a grave insult.
• In many schools, though seats for students are not assigned they are still "claimed" by certain students, and sitting in someone else's seat is considered an insult
