For the uninitiated, Rav Chaim Berlin declares it is not an issur for a man to shake the hand of a woman in a social setting. One caveat- he writes- “nochris”- a gentile woman.i wonder if this has to do that there is no issur niddah with a gentile woman.On the other hand, he proves hsi point from a gemoro that clearly talaks about a Jewish woman.
I love the ending of his teshuvo….
