Some people are rude because they never learned any manners. Some are so arrogant, they think they are above such petty concerns, like hurting people's feelings. Some just frankly don't care. These people eventually will become social outcasts . Some have serious personal problems and are so internally focused they just don't think.Others are just pathetically immature and make a joke of everything.Well-mannered people will just pretend not to notice , when possible, and just ignore these folks , and walk away.

Another thought on this is that people are rude because they get away with it. There are no negative consequences from their rude behavior. When rude people act out most people ignore them and embarassedly act as though they don't see them. The rude person enjoys making others squirm, feel bad, or feel uncomfortable. Contrary to popular opinion, rude people should not be ignored. They should be confronted about their behavior.

I will intercede on behalf of the defenseless who are being bullied. There are only going to be REAL, meaningful consequences for rudeness when society as a whole rejects rude people. In particular, when people stop admiring and emulating people in popular culture who are rude as a matter of course, are petted and indulged for this behavior. For example, at a recent White House dinner, Sir Paul McCartney, when accepting an award, included a gratuitous insult to former President G. W. Bush. There was not only no negative reaction, he was applauded for his behavior. Sir Paul is certainly entitled to his opinion, but to insult a former president while being honored at the White House by the current president, well, this is poor manners to a high degree, and a blot on the escutcheon of British nobility as a whole. So there we are. Until civilized people everywhere will shun the rude, it is left to us few to bear the standard of good manners to all.

How can people be so mean?

People are mean normally if they're in a bad mood, have been mean to or something similar to this!! People are in bad moods often and I'm sometimes in a bad mood myself but my friends and family will remind me not to take it out on other people, but some people can't help it, and have a tendency of taking it out on other people. If you ever do this or if I ever do this I hope you apologize or try to remember to.. Or,, just try not to even be mean!! People have feelings and it hurts when they get hurt!!


Why are popular people mean?

Why are some people naturally mean?

What you think is naturally mean can be nothing of the sort in fact. It is a matter of perspective for one thing, so what it percieved to be mean to you may just be playful or joking to him. Mean can also be an acquired trait. It can be learnt from a role model as a child for example. Mean can have to do with stress levels. Stress reduces what it takes for a person to explode and be very mean. This person may be under-going problems in their life. Mean may be acquired, again, as a child from a traumatic, most likely abusive, childhood. Being mean, some theories put it to chemical imbalances in the brain. Mean may be a dislike for you, or the people he is mean to.

What is the black stuff on your neck?

(Some people have dirt. So the black stuff in peoples necks is DIRT! ) A classic logical error above. Because 'some' people "have dirt" does not mean that the black stuff on various unspecified people's necks is dirt. The black stuff could, for example, be oil, or ink. In any event, the questioner wrote "on your neck". Grammatically and logically this can only mean the neck of the person to whom the question is directed. Because it is not possible to generalize about all people with black stuff on their necks, the original answer, "There is no black stuff on my neck. You must be looking at someone else." makes more sense.
