* In ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'', the rather silly-sounding [[https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Universal_greeting Universal Greeting]] introduced in ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformersTheMovie'' goes from solely vocal ("Bah-weep-graaagnah wheep nini bong!") to having a physical component, including several odd hand gestures followed by what should be open palms touching. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkWCOQDw3Bo As demonstrated by Wreck-Gar]], with the unfortunate caveat that he's attempting to introduce himself to Lugnut mid-ExplosivePunch.

** Bajoran vedeks have a habit of randomly walking up to a Bajoran and grasp their left ear (the right ear is covered by an elaborate earring) to feel their ''[[OurSoulsAreDifferent pagh]]''. In one [[ExpandedUniverse EU]] novel, Ro Laren reveals that this is the reason she wears her earring on the left ear - she hates it when they do that.

As a result, it seems like a lot of aliens shake hands by grasping each other's forearms, which is actually an old earth method of shaking hands, by showing that you have no weapons in your sleeves, as a display of trust.

* An Earth-based example: it's most common to shake hands with the right hand in Western culture. The Scout Association shakes with the left hand. This tradition originated with the Scouts in Africa where Baden-Powell observed tribesmen shaking with the left hand being a gesture of trust; the shield being carried in the left hand, you had to put your shield down, indicating your trust for the other guy, in order to greet him. Which turns out to be a really bad idea, generally speaking, as ''many'' cultures have a taboo about using the left hand for such things. Often due to the left hand being associated with being "unclean" (as generally the one used to clean oneself after defecating...)
