Cultural challenges from the sub-continent
As in Tanzania (and I believe other African countries) it's more the 'norm' for men to hold hands in public. Thankfully, having already experienced this cultural difference in East Africa I wasn't as shocked as I perhaps could've been when one of my new Indian friends casually clasped my hand(!) as we headed for a local community the Salvation Army having been working in over the last 10 years. All told, by the end of the day I'd held hands with 4 men! They're very promiscuous hand-holders on the sub-continent!
