One thing I do know is that Orthodox men will not touch any woman outside their family. They will not even shake hands with them because they are concerned the woman may be "unclean" (in their menstrual cycle). I know this from personal experience in working with Orthodox Jews. Isn't it in the Talmud that Orthodox men are told to thank God they were not born a woman or a slave?
