I posted a brief response to csar and others who maintain that shaking hands with a woman is “jaharog ve’al jaavor”but it wasn’t quoted. I don’t know the place from the Chazon Ish that he mentions- I do know that R”Moshe ztl has a couple of teshuvos on this and he is certainly not intimating the same thing. He quotes the minhag of Rabbonim in Germany that did shake hands and , although he writes “koshe lehattir”- it is difficult to be “meikel’, he surely does not say anything about “jaharog ve’al jaavor”.
