Manners and Etiquette

It is possible, but those of us with strong personalities sometimes have to struggle with tact, and inadverdantly say or do hurtful or thoughtless things. Very tender people may mistake this for meaness or bullying, so if you have a strong personality, just try to tone it down if you think you are making someone uncomfortable.

This is an age old question called the Nature/Nurture debate. As I've watched the children of myself and my family grow and go out into the world, I have seen them stray from the values and morals with which they were raised. On the other hand, I've seen young people who were raised by ill-mannered , drug or drink affected, uneducated people who have turned in to responsible exemplary citizens. So I think each one of us is self-determining in the end. We may leave home without the manners and values NOT having been taught to us, but there is something inside that knows there is better , and seeks it out. So, barring any congenital mental defect , it is a matter of personal choice. Reach for the sky.

The discomfort may stem from the social expectation that undergarments are meant to be private, while bikinis are considered appropriate attire for public settings like the beach or pool. The context in which the clothing is worn can influence how comfortable someone feels.

Rural sociology focuses on studying social structures and processes in rural areas, including agriculture, community dynamics, and rural development.

Building on a strong character and strong value system: * It is a learning process so one is going to make mistakes and we learn from our mistakes. * Watching others that have achieved this through age or knowledge. * Deciding if you want a religious faith and if you do then choose one and abide by the belief system of that faith. * Everyone knows right from wrong, so whether it costs you family, a mate or friends you know what is right and wrong so stand by your moral values no matter how many people are against you for it. * When trying for a career you can achieve your ultimate goal without ratting out on coworkers or stepping on bodies climbing the ladder. You are what you are at the top and everyone at the top eventually falls to the bottom so you'd better have a good family unity and good friends. * Treating family, your mate and friends, coworkers with loyalty, honesty, sterness yet with love and you will achieve more than anything else you have ever learned. * Be open to other's suggestions for you can always learn something from it and perhaps combine it with your own beliefs on the subject. * Realize that you are not always right! * Learn to be humble * Don't judge others until you have walked a mile in their shoes * Take time out to volunteer and give back something to society

With your pure heart introduce yourself to the front personality. No need to act 'Over smart'. Grow your tree of friendship with loyalty because it's difficult when some hidden things come out.

An outgoing, gregarious person is typically very social, enjoys being around others, and is often the life of the party. They are comfortable in social settings, love meeting new people, and tend to be energetic and enthusiastic in their interactions.

If you are invited, you should go because it is polite. If you are a potential debutante, there is no obligation to attend, but as many people don't have traditional 'white weddings' nowadays, it's a good chance to wear a fancy white dress!

In some Australian Aboriginal cultures, avoiding eye contact with adults is a sign of respect and humility. It is seen as a way of showing deference to elders and recognizing their authority. By not making direct eye contact, children show that they understand their place in the social hierarchy.

The origins are very ancient and cannot be attributed to any particular civilisation. They are traditional gestures of greeting by an inferior to a superior. The practice is now less common, but in European circles it is still traditional to bow and curtsey in front of royalty

Gatsby doesn't realize that Mrs. Sloane's dinner invitation is a superficial gesture meant to maintain appearances in high society. Mrs. Sloane and her husband are not genuinely interested in building a meaningful connection with Gatsby; instead, they view him as a spectacle to observe and entertain themselves with. Ultimately, Gatsby underestimates the shallowness of their social interactions.

At the end of the movie, we find out that Anna has imagined that her sister Alex was alive, when she actually died in the fire that killed the mother. If you watch the movie again, you'll see that no one else actually interacts with Alex (did you see the "Sixth Sense?"). In flashbacks you see what actually happened months earlier on the day the mother and Alex died in the fire.....Anna was angry after seeing her father having sex with the nurse Rachel so she went down to the boathouse to get some fuel to set fire to the big house. Anna doesn't turn the valve off completely causing the fuel to leak out (which Anna didn't do that part on purpose) and Alex stumbles in and causes the lantern to fall, igniting the fuel and the boathouse. I don't quite understand why the sick mother was confined to the boathouse, except maybe so the father could have sex with the nurse, but why the mother was living there isn't really important anyway. So the mother and Alex die in an explosion that was pure accident. Though it appears that Anna did want to burn something that night, it wasn't supposed to be the boathouse, it was just a horrible accident. This event lead Anna to a psychotic break and to the psyche ward we see her in the beginning. During her time at the psyche ward, she met the murderer, Mildred Kemp, who shared her stories of murder with Anna. Anna is released and goes home to find the nurse sharing the home with the father and doesn't trust her. Anna must have repressed the memories of how the fire truly started that night, as no one realizes that Anna played any part in it (again, although accidental). So in order to cope, she IMAGINES her sister is still alive (watch again, no one else ever sees Alex) and she imagines the nurse planned the mother's death (I guess because it is to stressful to admit her actions caused it). This is where the Mildred Kemp murder stories come in--Anna IMAGINES that Mildred was never caught (though at the end we see she has been institutionalized all along), and that Rachel is Mildred's new identity. Therefore, Anna convinces herself, as she tries to convince the sherrif, that Rachel is Mildred, the murderer of the Wright children (the three kids that are haunting her). The sheriff obviously doesn't believe Anna's account of Rachel's identity, which he wouldn't if he knew the real Mildred Kemp was institutionalized. Rachel does sedate her, but we find out at the end, it is because she truly wanted what was best for Anna, not to murder her. Anna wakes up and believes Alex killed Rachel in self defense. Then the father comes along, snaps Anna out of her delusion and we see that Anna killed Rachel. I believe Anna killed her for two reasons: repressed anger from catching her having an affair with the father the night of the fire AND because she was delusional and truly thought Rachel was going to kill her. The boy Matt was just collateral damage because he saw Anna leaving the boathouse the night of the fire and tried to tell her the night he died (we see that in the flashbacks at the end). I believe the haunting from the mother's corpse and the children were trying to make Anna aware of her part in everything and trying to bring her to reality. Rachel did change her identity, but as the father said, I guess it was to escape an abusive relationship. And when Anna says at the end, that she finished what she started, I believe she means that she finally killed the woman that she originally intended to harm the night of the fire, the woman she caught having the affair with her father--Rachel.

actually, it was used in the french and English wars, when captors would offer the option to prisoners to either be killed or bite a fig from the anus of a donkey. the sign is a huge insult in England, and tells the other person that i hate you and the only way you can regain my respect is to do something horrible, like to bite a fig out of an ass's ass.

* The nicest thing you can do is give them a warm smile and extend your hand and welcome them to the annual woman's church service 'I'm so happy you came today.' You don't need to say much more.

simply say.. you are welcome! because when you give you dont expect something in return and by saying you are welcome, it is like you are trying to explain to that person that what you have done/given him/her is just for her/him..

Just get friends and start adding . ya right that's an amatuer answer. cliques are a big responsibility and you will need the following types of people to make up your own clique 1. The Leader- the girl that knows what to do at all times she is the heart of every plan and usually the creator as well 2. The party girl- she scores the invites and gets enough for all the clique, not the most trustworthy but she's fun one to hang with 3. The smart girl- grades are top priority with her. she helps you study and is the one everyone looks to to solve a problem involving intelligence 4. The athletic girl- the girl dreams of being famous but not for movies or modeling but for going pro. watch out though you don't want the "tomboy" girl, you want the pretty girl that can kick butt 5. The second in command- this is the girl that's the leader's right hand girl she knows everything about everyone and knows things before they're made public. she's always there and a good trustworthy girl. BELIEVE ME if you have a good group of friends that don't fall under these categories then make sure they have these characteristics....confidence, poise, beauty, trustworthiness, loyalty, and above all the ability to have fun

The short and always all-encompassing answer is the Golden Rule . Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

It is a graceful gesture of accepting the honor with humility, rather than displaying vanity. It is a quid pro quo reciprocation of respect to the honor itself, and the person / institution bestowing the honor. This is socially appreciated, and often expected.

The word, when used as a verb, can mean submissive or obedient, so when person says that they are "humbled and honored" it means that they are in a state of submissiveness or obedience to the will of the group that is honoring them. Similar to how the word is used as a verb in Philippians 2:8 "And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
