[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm realizing more and more how clueless people are about basic etiquette. I used to think my mom was too hung up on the "rules", but now I appreciate knowing how to properly host things. I was just talking to BIL's fiancee last night about her potluck wedding shower. Her friend is "hosting", her mother is cooking most of the food, and she has asked MIL to bring food as well. Part of her ignorance about etiquette is cultural, but the same can't be said for most people who just don't have a clue. [/quote] Who defines etiquette though? I know it's great to be polite but really, it's 2010 not 1940. Sometimes etiquette is as outdated as some of the religious BS of the Catholic Church. Sit, stand, kneel, sit, stand, kneel... Like the blind leading the blind. It's so regional, cultural, and changeable. You etiquette ladies smitten can be classy and far from tacky w/out judging others or following your outdated etiquette books. Sheesh.[/quote] [b]Ah here comes the Catholic Bashing! Nice[/b][/quote] Isn't it, though? And it certainly gives the PP-Catholic-basher credibility![/quote]
