Mano po
My fiancé recently told me if I were to meet his grandparents i would most likely have to hold their hand to my forehead to show respect and ask for their blessing.
I want to be able to be able to talk a little tagalog when I meet them, and would like to know more about the culture to not disrespect them.
Is it only for grandparents age elders, or should I show respect that way to his mother too? Would that be respectful or insulting and calling her old?
Is there a certain order I would have to do it? (Men first, older to youngest?)
He said it is common to do so after church too, are there other times it would be expected?
