Original Note:
In Islam, men and women are prohibited from touching each other barring exceptions (e.g. spouse, descendants, ancestors). It does not indicate lack of worth. A Muslim woman following Islam's rules on this would not have shaken an unrelated man's hand. https://islamqa.info/en/answers/21183/shaking-hands-with-non-mahram-women
