I want to know what ever happened to manners? I remember when men, or people in general used words like please and thank you…or stood for seniors and offered the small courtesies towards women in general.
Are these social good tidings gone for good? Has the word Etiquette been deleted from the dictionary...or maybe it's just hiding temporarily. I can't tell you how many people have pushed past me to get in the door or if I open the door for a group…no one says 'Thank you'. Makes you wonder if mothers have stopped teaching their children manners.
Is the art of demonstrating manners become an ancient tradition? Here's another thing…I'm not an advocate of male dominance, but let's face it I am a woman and I do like the little niceties that can come with the title. I enjoy the door being opened for me and I enter first…not behind my date. I also like people who say please and thank you. Words like 'excuse me' or 'pardon me' are like music to my ears when I have been inconvenienced. I don' t like hats on the table or the sound of soup slerping.
My point is, we deserve to be treated with all the niceties that our parents received and we in kind, need to start give these niceties back. In all honesty it seems the South is more inclined to have manners while, I hate to say the Northern on the other hand , seems to have forgotten their's. Check out www.roundaboutbeauty.com Enjoy
