Are the good manners of old now misplaced and out of step with today's men and women?...
If yes, what do you think passes for the 'new decent'?....
Manners were drummed into me at a very early age, and I've never drifted away from them, not for an instant, but am I being a dinosaur thinker in a time when courtesies are surplus to social mores?....
Discuss at will....

The world moves on Arthur, things change imperceptibly with time but over a long time the changes are apparent'
The dialectical materialism is apparent. You are trapped in the past Arthur'

I like men to have gentlemanly qualities.
I'd have no interest in them otherwise.

Working in the service industry, the true test of good manners is how you deal people with bad ones.

Indeed ... sometimes you can defuse a potential conflict , with a calm & collective mannerism .
It's all about keeping cool , when others lose theirs .
