Table manners are incredibly archaic and make zero sense. Candidly, they're a bit annoying, and if I'm out with my male friends, I will not adhere to them.
Perhaps... but it's this shedding of seemingly archaic and nonsensical social customs that leads to bitching about fat bitches wearing dirty sweatpants to the mall and texting instead of holding a conversation. Last time I checked, Miss Manners' generation of polite ladies were mostly dead and gone, and if men don't maintain the social customs, who will?
Agree.
Good post.
I don't necessarily understand the reason behind many table manners, but you're right, circumventing them has lead to a world of fat women wearing yoga pants everywhere caked with cat hair.
