Thought I'd start this thread as a result of another one that got me thinking about female touching. It seems they(females)as a rule are more tactile, just think about how soft and smooth the attire is as compared to more masculine clothes. As far as touching ones arm it's like a hand shake female style, they clasp both hands on another's hands or clasp an arm instead. Just my observations being out and learning the ropes. As an example I recently went window shopping(en-femme) and found a small shop selling jewelry so I stopped in to see if they had larger size rings(both size and fit) and as I browsed a smiling woman behind the counter asked if she could help to which I replied I was looking for rings for everyday use(holding up my hand to show her my style) so she then proceeded to gently clasp my hand and turn it to get a closer look. After she sized my ring and fingers she then proceeded to slip many different rings on and off my fingers many times holding my hand and sometimes just holding my hand for a few seconds while we talked. She was very good at selling but I think she generally liked picking out one's for me to try. I did buy a couple nothing over the top by any means and nothing sparkly but she did try. She did make a favorable comment on my nails, even though they are artificial.
