Sticking pinky Out
You should understand that sticking up your pinky is not the universal nice gesture.
- Showing it to a woman in Japan could mean that you’re calling her the mistress of a married man.
- In the Mediterranean region, you’d be referring to the size of male genitalia.
Corna/ Rocker
The corna is otherwise reffered to as the horn hand which is often adopted by rockers around the world as a sign of approval to “rock on”. Some of us use it in an attempt to come across as cool.
However, control the urge to do so in the Baltics, Brazil, Colombia, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Flashing this gesture to a man is like telling him that he’s a cuckold at the mercy of his adulterous wife.
A-okay?, No its really far from it
There is something about this picture looking cool but let me give a short description to aid your comprehension of this gesture; you’re enjoying the beach in Rio, Brazil, then a bikini-clad Brazilian hot chick takes the deckchair next to you. She settles in, turns to you and asks, “Hey, how’s it going?”
You put your hand up and bring the tip of your index finger to your thumb to indicate you’re okay. To which, she empty her cocktail glass in your face and stomps off. What just happened? so sorry to let you know, but you just insulted her. In Brazil, the a-okay can very well be interpreted as a**hole, or something far more derogatory when it comes to women.
About the narration of my experience, you need to trust when I say he didn't hesitate to give me the beating of my life, he did it so well as though he was trained for such.
This was my experience in the Mediterranean, Japan, Italy, Brazil and Spain which I never traveled to, My imagination got you too.
But Forget my imagination, that's just God's gift to project fantasy by the way, but do ensure you are polite in extending your reactions using gestures.
