A British man came to Sheikh and asked: Why is not permissible in Islam for women to shake hands with a man? The Sheikh said: Can you shake hands with Queen Elizabeth? British man said: Of course not, there are only certain people who can shake hands with Queen Elizabeth. Sheikh replied: our women are queens and queens do not shake hands with strange men.
Oh women, all I would like to say is, let us not lose our dignity and self-respect. Let us not give ourselves to others easily because yes, we are as precious as a Queen. :)
