Implicating suggestive_gesture → gesture
Link to implication

Reason:

A suggestive gesture is a gesture that is suggestive in nature; it already implies suggestive, I don't see why it shouldn't also imply gesture.

¹ Double V Sign implies V Sign, I don't see why reverse shouldn't also imply it. If people disagree, then imply directly to gesture instead.

-1. I can't even understand the point of such implication.

I) The tag is empty.

II) It is extremely vague.

-1. By definition gesture is a visual, non-verbal way of comunication/expression mostly based in movements of hands and arms. Those greetings shouldn't be included, since aren't visual ways of communicating/expressing.

Likely a misunderstanding. He got it from my earlier post.

I've never seen the word "visual" in the definition of gesture before. All the relevant definitions I've seen just say communication via movement/positioning of hands/limbs.

Besides, handshakes are often used as a visual sign of agreement.

Welp that's what I get for being exhausted and trying to fix things lmao. My bad; interpersonal wasn't supposed to be included lol. My apologies, fixing the OP.

This is because it usually is left implicit, additionally 'gesture' may also be used like 'attitude' or 'action" and is common for mixing those meanings a little. Summarizing, makes sense for this information to not be mentioned, unless you are treating the subject a bit deeperly (which is the case here).

For instance: patting someone's head is communicate and involves hand movement, however isn't a gesture since vision isn't the via of communication.

In this case "visual" means that this action is visually noticeable through an external view point, however the relevance is in how the communication is happening and the individuals arent communicating their agreement to each other visually, but physically.

So what you're saying is a gesture can't be visual and feature contact at the same time? The definitions don't say anything about not allowing physical contact.

What would you rather classify a handshake as, if not a gesture?

Maybe contact/tactile comication, but I don't know any proper term for that.

It can, but the contact isn't the focus; e.g. pointing at someone's chest and poking it does involve contact however it isn't mandatory.
Keep in mind that there isn't a clear separation while regarding types of communication, since most acts involve more that one of those in different proportions, e.g. gesticulation and facial expressions fit in visual communication, but usually accompany and complement speech, which is auditory, verbal communication.
