Do I need a toast when I go to the woman's house for the first time? How to propose a toast?

In the traditional culture of China, visiting a woman's house for the first time usually requires a toast. This is a way to show respect and gratitude, and also a way to show your courtesy and sincerity.

The steps of toasting are as follows:

1. Determine the position of the glass: Before you start toasting, you must first determine the position of the glass. Usually, wine glasses should be placed next to wine bottles or on trays.

2. Standing posture: Keep standing posture and keep your body balanced when toasting.

3. Use gestures: When toasting, pick up the glass with your right hand and hold the bottom of the glass with your left hand to show respect.

4. Drinking method: Take a sip when toasting to show sincerity. If you can't drink, you can say, "Thank you for your hospitality. I'm going to drink water.".

5. Order: When toasting, respect the elder or host first, and then respect others.

It should be noted that the first time you go to a woman's house, you don't need to worship too much wine, just a moderate amount. At the same time, if you don't drink or are allergic to alcohol, you can inform your host in advance and pay attention to your diet.
