rejected.content: It is true that in Indonesia it is considered to be impolite to stand with your hands on your hips because it recalls the way the Dutch imperialists used to pose when they were in power there. In many countries across the world, a wide stance with arms akimbo is associated with machismo, power, and strength which can come across as domineering and aggressive. Generally, it is best to avoid making that kind of physical gestures when trying to convey meaning in another culture.
