Good manners never hurt! No matter where we are, with good manners we reap politeness, attention and resolve conflicts before they arise.
But what about the rules of etiquette today? Which of these so-called rules still apply today? In the area of politeness, things have changed, just as our lives have changed.
Since the appearance of "Knigge's collection of rules of conduct" in 1788 until today, our coexistence and thus the relationship between women and men has changed a lot.
