- The Japanese prefer standing at arms lengths from one another. Two and half to three feet is normal. When meeting strangers this distance is farther.
- In public places like the subway, a market, etc. personal space can be limited and pushing up against one another is quite common.
- There is almost no touching between men and men, women and women, and men and women while conversing. In social situations, like drinking together, it is more common.
