On most occasions it’s traditional to genuflect on one knee but what are the occasions it is required to genuflect on both knees?

Embarrassing is when.....after years of genuflecting in church....you go to the pictures......and genuflect before entering your row of seats.......... :-(

There is an interesting theory that a nickname for RCs, 'left-footers', derives from how they were taught to genuflect, by putting the left foot forward and going down on the right knee.
