Is that really a Muslim belief — that men are too good to shake the hand of a lowly woman?

Yes, this is a Muslim practice & it is mine too. I don’t shake hands with men - has nothing to do with feeling lowly.

duh. are you serious? yes, and moreover, it’s grounds for killing the woman who even spends time talking with a man to whom she’s not married or related. it’s been done countless times - called an “honor killing”.

They may not stoop to shake a female's hand, but they will not hesitate in raping a girl prior to a honor killing or any female which might be in a prison which they work.

Goats and sheep are also prone to be their sex targets. I do not know if the will shake hands with these animals even through I have lived in both Iran and Saudi Arabia.
