The 15 Main Rules of Modern Etiquette

[@BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL]

Are there any weird etiquette rules in your country? Here're really unexpected etiquette rules from different countries kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJuxaIamYqmqh5Y

[@michaellazimhosein6881]

Nobody obey ing the Wi-Fi one

[@vysh2188]

Standing up when someone older than us come

[@AndreaStephenieLo]

Letting the old people start eating first at meals

[@TealStarSusan]

Here in Portugal, one calls unfamiliar people eg the shopkeeper or plumber Mr and their name eg Mr David. If the person is female they are called for example Dona Susan. If someone is an engineer ... or a doctor ... you get called the equivalent of mr/ms doctor(or engineer) Miller! A long mouthful !

[@sharanya5404]

[@papayamango9629]

Also, hold the door for the person behind you If someone is walking behind you, hold the door open, don’t just let it slam in their face, its extremely rude

[@SherienHesham]

papaya mango IKR like literally nobody does it any longer it is so annoying and disrespectful

[@Vicsprinkles]

papaya mango or when you go out of your way to hold it open for people and they just walk past and don’t even say thank you

[@korger1481]

[@WABRECORDS]

This is honestly a good guide for people who never met any other people before.

[@eema9836]

Never ask who will be at the party. It sounds like the hostess is not important enough for you to go without knowing who is there

[@shqipe4801]

what if you ask because you dont want to meet a specific person at the party?

[@dromie5059]

@@shqipe4801 I would ask the host/hostess, or let them know about the person (if you two are informal)

[@thisisntsergio1352]

I have asked this before and it is risky because the people I was trying to avoid were in the same room as the host.

[@RandomHorseCrazies]

Yeah well I have anxiety so if no one I know is there, sorry the host is not enough for me to come

[@jodie3950]

I always ask. I understand it sounds rude but I have anxiety so I really can't be bothered to come if its all gonna be people i dont know

[@melissaszarka7815]

Please don't tell someone they gained weight or you look tired. It's insulting and insensitive.

Melissa Szarka You gained weight

[@plasmichoneytrip]

Or,"You lost a lot of weight (even if they weren't really that obese). They might think," Was i THAT big?" That might be the reality but a still a bit awkward as it could be a backhanded compliment.

[@geenadavis4993]

I cane into my work place one evening with no makeup and no business clothes on to study. The guy delivering product said , “omg you look like your dog just died.” My co-workers never stopped making fun and gossiping about that afterwards. Some things are just better left unsaid. I wasn’t sure if he was ride to be so blunt or if it was rude of me to come into my coffee shop looking different than I always do. P.s. I don’t own a dog. I actually had cats that I had to give away 😔

maybe he thought you looked sad & was concerned

[@bnd123us]

[@juliettownsend2849]

I personally dont think this is about being polite so it doesnt belong in this vid. Not saying its ok to break rules- but its not bothering others around you like being loud in theater would be.

[@adriancogen4351]

I agree! It's my own home! Time to relax. If there is no one scheduled to come by I never answer the door. Why would I?

[@Smoo1977]

Totally! My home, my rules. It's bad etiquette if someone wants to tell me what I can or cannot do in my own four walls, especially while I'm alone, I would say.

[@Singsloud69]

If you wanted to see me fully dressed you would call or wait till invited. Otherwise dont expect me to be dressed

[@bestiebestiees4431]

[@raven_0525]

[@mattiles5811]

How can you tell someone what to wear in their own house

[@Ad-Lo]

Matt Iles If you live with others, it's their house, too.

[@CaesarInVa]

I know. Besides, I don't know about you or anybody else, but its not like I have a stream of foot traffic beating a path to my door every day. I can't recall the last time a neighbor dropped by unannounced or a friend dropped by without calling first. Of course, maybe that's a subtle statement about my personality, or perhaps they're afraid of what state of nakedness I might be in.

[@afiafarzanahossainbimugdha3415]

but its better to do that

[@SylwekGrega]

It’s rude for movie theaters to charge you such outrages prices,

[@marymaritimes6648]

great answer

[@Dexsys18]

Actually you would know the reason why they do that. Its cause they have their own difficulties too u know? Even i thought they were rude then i watched this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qauyeWObnaaed7s ; Now i hope u understand my reply P.S: i do not work in this industry nor am i trying to defend it, thus the above thoughts r sincerely mine.

[@maitreyi3429]

Sylwester Grega yup i agree with you....

[@LaRni_XV]

It's not rude, it's criminal

[@sonyamcrae-mercer1422]

Movie theatres use the money from concession sales to pay the electricity/water/gas bills & the rent, in some cases mortgage, on the building & keeping the building maintained. A percentage also goes to help pay employees & at the large theatre chain I worked for as the general manager, I received a "concession bonus" every quarter (a percentage of the concession sales). Ticket sales go to the movie companies not the cinemas. High concession prices keep the theatres open. Knowing all of this still doesn't help my pocket book when I go see a movie. 😛

[@vinita860]

One more etiquette rule that I personaly think is needed is that To not be on your phone when someone's speaking to you

[@karenlouise651]

Not to seat beside the driver's seat? I was told thr opporsite. Its rude to ride at the back and keep the front/side seat empty if the one driving is not a hired driver. If you do, its as if treating the person your driver.

[@thisisntsergio1352]

As an avid driver, the first seat I'd expect anybody to get in is the passenger seat. If I have 2 friends riding with me, one gets in the passenger, the other chooses any seat in the 2nd row. Keep in mind that it's easier to glance backwards at them for a bit of friendly eye contact if we are all having a bit of a conversation. Then the if the 2nd row is filled, people then file into the 3rd row. But this is never really the case

[@fayray6698]

It depends on in which culture you were rised and on where are you from

When you invite guests and expect them to take their shoes off in your house it is your duty to offer them slippers. When expecting guests make sure you have basic things like guest towel, soap and toilet paper in the guest bathroom. It is amazing how many people don't bother with this. And it doesn't cost much and is not hard!

[@steppy3736]

"Avoid discussing politics, religion, & money" yeah, this is the exact reason people can't have reasonable discussions about politics & religion because we never learned how.

[@zs7238]

One thing about politics and religions: everyone thinks they are right, and won’t change their opinions. So why discuss it with anyone but those interested in a deeper academic discussions anyway? Most people bringing these up are just looking for attention or arguments.

[@nsreemayukha]

Never be ashamed to say "Thank you ", "sorry" and "please" because they might change the way the other person voews the situation at times...

[@allanmcculloch9187]

Dont talk with your mouth full, close your mouth when chewing, no elbows on the table, remember please and thank you and I cant think of anymore

[@theREALticklemonster898]

Okay, my school is primary school, so straight away u can imagine how awful that is with the little kids- -elbows on the table -loud talking -talking with food in ur mouth -food flying everywhere -people get more food on the floor than it touches their mouth

[@starlsma2000]

And don't burp loudly Infront of others, it's just disrespectful

[@kalabanham]

I think the whole “scooting past people in aisles” part is incorrect, just because it goes entirely against everything I was formally taught at art school for seven years. Every year at my middle and high school, we were reminded of correct theatre etiquette. The correct way to pass through a row of seated people is to have your backside towards them. Also, the people seated are not to stand, but to angle their legs in the direction the person is headed. It creates the least amount of disturbance during performances and is a lot more effective than one might think.

[@paulineng6177]

It is easier to walk pass the seated than trying to struggle to walk facing them, somehow it is more difficult.

[@gisawslonim9716]

You shouldn't be coming in after the performance has started in the first place.

[@verom8657]

@@gisawslonim9716 Have you ever had to use the restroom?

[@rena6895]

Agreed, if I am seated I do not want someone facing me as they squeeze through.

[@novemberalphamike10]

Ur talking about a theatre. Where u literally expecting this rule to apply in this situation? Did u honestly think it makes sense for the entire row of seated ppl to stand up, walk to the isle to let ppl in (only to get their seat stolen) and then all go back into the row to sit. I feel like common sense should prevail here.

[@labogaerts]

The most important of all are missing: say please and thank you. Elders should be treated with respect. Not everyone understands or accepts to be addressed as "guys", Speaking on the phone loudly when in public: in a queue, at a cashier, at a stand.

[@randomobserver8168]

Good additions.

[@brookles6177]

Never talk on the phone when on public transportation.

[@chickennugget6233]

I do not understand people who get upset over "guys". My perspective is they over the top sensitive and take things far too personally. Maybe someone can explain why they dislike it.

[@anitafrieda]

Not elders should be treated with respect, (it's not a special achievement to get old) but you should treat everybody with respect, even a child.

[@SuperGuanine]

With all due respect, maybe you need to say ""please" more often. It is always better to be polite.

[@starlsma2000]

Tipping is optional

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

For some reason most people allow their hotel room doors to slam shut behind them. I've been woken up many times over the years because of this. What I do is turn the handle and quietly close the door when I'm going into my room. If I'm leaving my room I'll insert the keycard into the door locking mechanism, turn the handle and quietly close the door. It's not rocket science.

Public and polite discussion of religion and politics are foundational to good culture. The frequent, polite, exchange of ideas allows people to consistently examine their beliefs, and to find like minded individuals, and build stronger communities. Cultures begin to crumble when outliers shout down such necessary polite exchanges. Thank you.

Never discuss religion and politics, with anyone; friend, foe, or stranger. Reason: Too touchy and sensitive.

[@ingrids.3437]

Leaving your umbrella open to dry is considered rude?? I never knew that. On rainy school days, pretty much every single classmate of mine leaves their umbrella open to dry on the floor, usually in the back of the class. If there's a lot of umbrellas, which there usually are, they go all the way from the back of the class to right in front of the board. Sometimes it's annoying when you try to get up from your seat and trip over some guy's umbrella, but I never knew it was considered rude. Even our teachers do it when they enter the classroom.

[@soniquecat4745]

I agree. People should learn to talk about it in respectful and open matter. Not hush hush hush and then vote extremists.... I was born in a communist country, but i was a child when the cold war ended. For long time I thought that "don't talk about politics" was just a rule we had on the wrong side of iron curtain, not to get arrested....

[@randomobserver8168]

I'd like to agree and have done that for many years but would never bring up such subjects first. Even less so now, since I don't want to encourage an approach that means forbidding conflict outright. Conflict and argument are natural and good and I'd prefer a model in which there are no-go areas for those things, and elsewhere they are allowed full flight, than one in which conflict is disallowed just so we can let the subjects intrude everywhere in life. Then again, I might just be sick of coworkers' daily views on the politics of a neighbouring, foreign country. The workplace was also once a forbidden zone for such things.

[@aceeeee8858]

an nami I agree, these things should be talked more. However, many times these conversations can take a personal tone which may lead to people discussing their biased opinions and thoughts and could create the perfect climate for a fight over disagreements.

BRIGHT SIDE thx for taking the time to actually write down which etiquette is found at what part of the vid, thx

[@khathien0123]

I have problems with my coworks because I was too much close to them and talked too much about my personal lifestyle to them. That ruined my ex-position as the exjob. It rules the #3 Informality between stranger is forbidden. Acting with them as the stranger. Thank BrightSide for the Office Important Tip for Success.

[@behindcloseddoorsministries]

BRIGHT SIDE this is great information thanks! Most of them I did know but some of these I did not. 🙂

[@sherylAA]

These apply to family too. My family always coming over without warning and getting into my fridge and walk for my wifi. Or when I invite them over for dinner they have their face in their phone the entire time.

[@shirozo2073]

My parents don't knock on my door before entering but I do knock before entering their room... I've explained many times to them that I need privacy but they still barge in 😕

[@abhinavrajesh2975]

Always lock your doors

[@Yvonnization]

Never put a bag on the floor. A lady wouldn't do that.

[@helenebedar7636]

true!

[@barbkitto6102]

If I receive a gift, I write a Thank You note and mail it, the old-fashioned way. Similarly, if I go to a function or attend an event like dining in a restaurant and then seeing a movie with a friend, I make sure to send a short note to my companion a few days later. I usually tell them what a good time I had, thank them for their attendance and mention a repeat outing would be agreeable in the future.

[@krystynajanda1322]

Actually in Europe we consider it somewhat strange when people stand facing the exit of the lift. It's more common to stand facing the middle of the lift in most of the situations. I think it makes no difference really, we just tend to stare at the ground instead making eye contact, but it's just the way it is here.

[@zureeshasajid]

A very interesting video, some etiquettes that I follow, apart from these are, When you bowwor a book, cover it and always return on time. When you borrow someone's car, always clean & refuel it before returning.

[@midwestkatie8068]

The worst is morning elevator or subway when you're short. Suffocating in deodorant, cologne (you can tell the diff between cologne (alcohol) and perfume), hair spray/mousse, makeup (yes it smells, esp cheap stuff),body/hand lotion, after shave, breath mints, coffee - all combining together...it is terrible. Good way to start the day with a head ache. Who needs to be so smelly at work?

[@basugunja]

Also, I don't find anything wrong in chatting with my close buddies about family problems or love affairs! If our besties can help us in our daily life problems, what's bad in that! Sometimes friends are capable of doing things which family members cannot!

[@theUroshman]

There are some useful rules you talk about, but your advice on what topics we CAN talk about is actually the best advice on how to become the most boring person in the world!

[@hermioneowusuasarfo3455]

Apologising for being late for meetings or for your meals is one etiquette to consider.

[@RicksWayOfLife]

Other etiquette rules... 1. Use appropriate language in public (no swearing) 2. Use the proper greeting when answering the phone at work (Use your company's and department's name, and ask how can you assist) 3. Wash your hands before leaving the restroom, especially because of the next rule. 4. When shaking hands, do not squeeze the other person's hand too hard. A nice firm handshake will suffice.

[@Squarehead45]

#3, Work time is for WORKING,,,WOW, what a concept,,too bad more people don't do such.

[@ItsMrxSean]

I think this "ettiquite" just stems from kindness in these heavily contextual areas. I don't agree with the topics of conversation. People should be vulnerable enough with one another to talk about whatever they want to. The ettiquite behind it should be: change the subject if you sense someone's discomfort.

[@thisisntsergio1352]

Only talk about personal things with people you're very familiar with. If you're only acquaintances or coworkers and what to keep it that way, then don't talk about these things. Be cordial. Otherwise, those 9 secrets things are mostly fair game.

[@captianhydra1712]

9:03 so you're basically telling us not to talk. 😂

[@rainatmidnight]

speak* "talk" is improper in that sentence. You're welcome.

[@Theos.]

When entering/leaving a building that doesn't have a sliding door, and someone is close on my tail, I will always hold the door for them and stand aside. If the door is one of those slow closers, sometimes I will just throw it wide and go through, and the door will stay open long enough for the next person to either catch the door or get inside. When I'm walking in a public place, like a grocery store, and someone is next to me going at the same pace, I will always speed up or slow down, because to me it feels weird to walk next to a stranger for an extended period of time.

[@plug1461]

When I first went into nursing we were not allowed to wear earrings at all including studs in case they fell out and went into an open wound and especially not in theaters, I've noticed a lot do now, and only wedding rings are allowed but I've noticed a lot of nurses wearing rings as well.

[@KarlaHernandez-ro1dl]

I learned all of this growing up and in etiquette classes they were a pain in the arse

[@anitafrieda]

I love it when my guests help themselves. So I don't have. And sometimes I forget to ask them if they want to have something to drink. I prefer if they say "can I get myself something to drink?" before they are really thirsty! Thirst is unhealthy.

Be aware of personal space (standing too close, parking too close, etc) ...which really bugged me moving from NY to Texas!

[@andreapatane4204]

I always follow shuttle etiquette twice a week on my work routes, because it’s important that I don’t injure the person who asks for a 💺 next to me.

[@georgiaman1926]

My home is where I am my most comfortable. I only wear my shorts around the house. I do keep pants and a shirt close to the door. I can put these on in a matter of minutes if I need to. However, people should call first before coming over. That way I have time to dress properly.

[@Love_Kim-qf7bl]

I've always disliked people who talk about other people I always wonder if the person has done wrong , why don't you tell him/her or better yet just keep it to yourself?

[@seangonzalez9025]

Esy Kim Like what your doing now! It's just human nature to judge or talk about someone. Especially if they've left some type of impact on us. Just depends on what your saying about them.

[@Love_Kim-qf7bl]

Sean Gonzalez i am well aware that we always talk about others especially as you put it when one has an "impact" on us But I meant back stabbers or those who bad talk It could be better if someone talked nicely or good about the person

[@midwestkatie8068]

Sean Gonzalez with close friends, sure, in general-talkimg about others says more about talker than subject

[@yfloresvaldivia]

Esy Kim . When I hear someone talk bad about others it makes me know them more .I do not share any personal thing with them as I beleive they will talk sbout me, I 'll change the topic asking about them instead😀😧

[@midwestkatie8068]

amber capps So young to have learned a great life lesson! When someone is angry, and spreads that anger around, the world is a sadder place. Better to smile and look for a positive resolution to a problem. And forgive. Hard sometimes, but forgiveness is like cleaning out your heart of dirty residue. Doesn't mean you have to like the person. Does mean you give yourself the power to move on at peace, instead of giving them the power to control your heart. You are going to have a good life, young wise one!

[@heatherfeather1293]

#11 - Ha I wish!!! My mother didn't understand the idea of knocking on my door as a child.

[@JamesW0214]

You're right. Some parents will probably see no need to knock and enter as they please because they are the parents and they own the house. Sad but true some parents belittle their kids.

[@anitafrieda]

Imagine your landlord would enter your apartment without permission, because he is the owner of the house.

[@michaelv5148]

If your landlord pays your rent (or you fail to) you can expect they have a reason to enter. It's polite to knock but parents are legally responsible for their children so it's a variable option. The parents decide when it is and isn't necessary.

When someone asks me how much something costs, I wiggle my fingers and say ‘five finger discount’ implying I stole it,

[@moniquedamphousse9682]

Always say please and thank you when appropriate. When visiting someone in hospital, try not to stay too long. People who are ill tire quickly. Use your indoor voice when in a restaurant. Other people are paying for the privilege to sit there and enjoy the ambiance as well as you. In that vein, please do not allow your children to have the run of the restaurant. Others may not appreciate sticky little hands on their clothes. If your baby is crying, go to the ladies or mens room with him/her, or take the child out to your car for some time out.

[@randomobserver8168]

Interesting about hats. Very traditional. I find fewer men now realize they were supposed to remove hats indoors. Men who bother with more formal hats, usually. But ball caps and such are omnipresent indoors now. It was arbitrary, but a nice gesture of respect to the house or institution. I get that a shopping mall seems not to warrant that, but so it goes.

[@hatchjerod5555]

Another example of the culture raising a generation. My parents taught me this stuff, not KZbin. They also taught me there is a time and place to discuss more intimate things like religion, politics. It was never universally tabooed!

[@OzarksUSA]

I'm 37, the oldest of the Millenials. And, everyone I know, no matter their generation, we start talking religion and politics eventually. I don't know anyone who has it "universally tabboed." I like in the USA, maybe it's different where you live.

[@behindcloseddoorsministries]

Love this💚 thanks, you are so right about everything. I especially like not discussing personal matters so true!🌺

[@christineferreira2181]

I have a serious issue with people just stopping by without calling. And those who know me respect that. Also, if I want to wear comfy pj pants a T-shirt and don’t plant on guest or plans on leaving the house I’m gonna wear a clean pair after my shower
