Traditional etiquette often suggests that a man should wait for a woman to extend her hand first for a handshake. This practice is based on the idea of chivalry and respect, allowing the woman to initiate physical contact if she chooses. However, in modern contexts, it is also acceptable for either person to initiate a handshake regardless of gender.
