Conditioned response v etiquette!

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by Dicky, May 13, 2014.

  1. Its actually not difficult. Just drop the subservient approach of sir or madam and talk to people like they are just people. If you need someone to address you as sir (or madam) all the time then you have issues (but then again the industry does have some big issues ie treat people like sh1t and then make them act like servants!

  2. More about making people feel comfortable to express themselves. Threatened is possibly not the right word.
     
  3. What frock were you thinking wearing to the event, @Dicky ?

    A big person of nonsexual description might Not be able to carry off the sequined look so best go for a single colour full length but not to floaty.


    Hope this helps.

  7. What with the media falling over itself to refer to the Eurovision winner as "she" when "she" was obviously a he with a male christian name etc. and recognized as a drag queen, one begins to wonder whether socially we are in the theatre of the absurd...

  17. That is disgusting and should not be allowed. It shows that some people should be locked and the key thrown away. That handbag does not go with that outfit!

    So the person with the beard from Austria who won the Eurovision song contest is an acceptable way to refer to - err. The person with a beard from Austria who won the Eurovision song contest?
