I think that can be considered rude too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hands-on-hips#post-2431773 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 19:03:25 +0000 mrbee 2431773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was reading up on local culture and learned that where I live now, putting your hands on your hips is considered rude. I asked around and everyone agreed that it's not considered polite. I thought, "I don't do it that often, I'll just stop. It's no big deal."</p> <p>I quickly learned that I put my hands on my hips all the time!! I have had a hard time stopping... so now I clasp my hands behind my back when I feel the urge to put my hands on hips. The whole "hands clasped behind your back" thing feels weird to me, but at least I'm not offending anyone!</p> <p>Anyone else put their hands on their hips all the time? I am seriously using up like 10% of my willpower forcing myself not to do this every day! </p>
