it is very much different in other countries. in the phillipines it's rude to motion for someone to come over to you. communication is something like 70% body language...so it's a lot. make sure you find out what's proper and what's not if you're going somewhere else.

Instinctive body language is the same for everyone.
However, we do learn certain cultural body language as well, and that can be different. We learn to behave in certain ways which acts as a mask for our true identity. Strip away that acting, and we are all the same at a human level.

It is different for different people in different countries and in different parts of one country according to their culture and circumstances, ex. city and rural, city people move faster and stay more closed most of the time and country people don't need to do that as much, but country people will some times hold their heads up more and city people will look at others eye level many more times, this is just my quick bit

I could be wrong, but I don't think so. Gestures are. (Ex: if you cross your arms & stare at the person who's talking to you, you feel threatened or aggresive.) On the other hand, some hand gestures mean different things in different cultures.

good example: in Bulgaria they nod the opposite (up and down to say NO, left and right to say YES)

If they are kneeling and pointing an rpg at you, you are probably in Iraq.
