Etiquette

Etiquette (/ˈɛtᵻkɛt/ or /ˈɛtᵻkɪt/, French: [e.ti.kɛt]) is a code of behavior that delineates expectations for social behavior according to contemporary conventional norms within a society, social class, or group.

The French word étiquette, literally signifying a tag or label, was used in a modern sense in English around 1750. Etiquette has changed and evolved over the years.

History

In the 3rd millennium BC, Ptahhotep wrote The Maxims of Ptahhotep. The Maxims were conformist precepts extolling such civil virtues as truthfulness, self-control and kindness towards one's fellow beings. Learning by listening to everybody and knowing that human knowledge is never perfect are a leitmotif. Avoiding open conflict wherever possible should not be considered weakness. Stress is placed on the pursuit of justice, although it is conceded that it is a god's command that prevails in the end. Some of the maxims refer to one's behaviour when in the presence of the great, how to choose the right master and how to serve him. Others teach the correct way to lead through openness and kindness. Greed is the base of all evil and should be guarded against, while generosity towards family and friends is deemed praiseworthy.

'Etiquette' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:

GayCare (2011)

Actors: Akie Kotabe (actor), Akie Kotabe (actor), Akie Kotabe (composer), Nadine Ellis (actress), David Carmon (writer), David Carmon (actor), David Carmon (director), David Carmon (producer), Kenny Stevenson (actor), Kevin Sateri (actor), Linda J. Carter (actress), Ethan Mechare (actor), Sean Ridgway (actor), Ethan Mechare (actor), Jaya Subramanian (actress),

Plot: It's here, it's queer, and GayCare is changing the face of continuing education. Just past the year mark, GayCare struggles to keep their doors open. As a result of the infomercial, droves of newly-outed and returning student gays continue to pepper and adorn the halls; however student enrollment is still low, on the real down low. Co-director, Tammy Chowsky has a strategic plan for the future success of GayCare, and Nick Butter, the other co-director still tries to wrap his mind around why a "W" is not called a double V. Tammy and Nick are an odd duo; smart and pretty meets the ill-advised. They differ in their managerial philosophies and who has the greatest love for Rick Astley, but when it comes to their version of an adopted Malawi black baby--GayCare, they sit down, have a glass of boxed wine and figure how to keep gay out there.

Etiquette

Never noticed her
Why I noticed her so much
I made myself ridiculous
Never noticed her
But I made the blunder of trying to attract her
attention instead of giving it
When I said hello
I had talked right past her
When she looked at me
I had glanced shyly to one side
I had been so self-conscience,
I acted self-conscience
Notice others and let them notice my directness
Whoo! Play it Phil! Whoo!
Don’t be scared; don’t be shy.
You’ll never know until you try, buddy
Fred is one of the richest people I have ever met
True, he does not have a hoard of money to give away
He cannot pay handsome salaries
He does not entertain lavishly
Or bestow costly gifts
But he overflows with the gold of sincere friendliness
And gets in return a self-satisfaction
An influence, and a power with people
That all the money in the mint could not buy
He does not wait to see if people will like him
Fred assumes they do like him
That is one of his secrets
He does not wait for them to say hello or smile first
He takes a friendly lead himself and everyone follows
That is another one of the secrets
He does not question whether or not
He will like a person
Or wait before deciding to be friendly
He takes it for granted
He will like everyone, every person
This is the third secret of friendliness
He magnifies other’s good points
No matter how inconsequential
He overlooks a few annoying qualities
Or major bad points
This is the fourth element in friendliness
Friendliness is very contagious
The trouble is that many of us wait
To catch it from someone else instead of
