| i hear the "okay" hand gesture here (making a circle with your thumb and index finger) in brazil is offensive and considered the same as flicking someone off. |

LWTF.
I wasn't really upset to hear this but I was incredibly astonished and undeniably flabergasted at the accusation. |
While this might be a joke, I can understand that. That is very offensive to some arabs. As matter of fact it can be just as offensive and showing the bottom of foot to an arab by normally crossing your foot over you leg while sitting.
"Western" gesture that mean different things over there. |
