Video suggestion; i’m not sure if you have a video about it already, but I would love have you do a video on how to assert yourself with class and how to respond to pushy people in a confident and classy manner. How to react in a situation where you feel you have being wronged or overlooked or someone has stepped your boundaries.
Absolutely agree on what a backhanded compliment "you look good for a mother of two" is. Not only is it implicitly insulting for mothers but it also holds non-mothers to an impossible standard, as if they were expected to look great and fit merely because they haven't had children. Literally a user's manual on how to insult all women in just one sentence
Firstly, really happy to see how we were educated on "back handed" compliments so even if someone was unintentionally doing them, they can correct their mistakes (a bunch of us have either been there or witnessed it happening). Secondly, thank you for sharing the "don't ping pong" tip, I've definitely done it in the past. Thank you for this video😃🍀
I met an old acquaintance at the mall a few months ago, I looked really nice that day, her complement was " you look nice and are dressed well, not the way you used to dress when we worked together" She complimented my present looks but insulted my old looks in one statement.
My grandmother, her name was Grace and she was beautiful and born with the silver spoon. She taught me how to sit and to never cross the legs. She went to a Finishing school. She never gave this reason but it is a good one. This position of crossing the legs can misalign hips and cause blood clots.
I’m leaning to say thank you and keep quiet 🤫. I use to feel like I should say something back but! I realize it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to you and many others on the internet who shares their experiences. You look great in this red dress ❣️ Thank you.
Your videos are absolutely amazing! I love how you present etiquette in such a graceful and approachable way. I was wondering if you could do a video on elegant hairstyles or tips on how our hair should be styled to complement an elegant look. It would be so helpful!
I generally would say to not compliment people on their bodies/weight in general. I have been thin and I have been overweight, so I have seen both sides. When I was overweight and people around me got "you look so thin!" compliments, it just really emphasized that "thin" is better. And when I was thin and I got those compliments, it always made me think "did I really not look pretty when I was overweight?"
Thank you for this insightful video dear Jamila! 💛 I personally need to work on the "Ping Pong" compliment thing, since I always feel like I owe someone a compliment once they offer me one. This also reminds me of this incident that occured yesterday. A male friend of mine showered me with tons of compliments about how feminine and elegant I am and my tomboy female friend (I mean this in a very respectful way) sat there visibly awkward. I was emabrrassed but now I realise that I personally don't need to be so conscious about it because it was my male friend who made the setting weird with his public compliments. I'd have apreciated if he did so privately. This also teaches that do conisder your compnay before offering a public compliment so as to not unknowingly embarrass/insult someone else.
Amazing video as always really helpful for a person like me who get really nervous in such situation and also wanna know what to do in a situation where you are constantly being asked about something you don't want to tell other people because it is little personal but because of the pressure you end up telling them - like in my situation i didn't want to tell people about my job because its not confirmed yet but because of constant questions i ended up blurting out because i couldn't dodge it
Love this.💯 And everyone hates artificial compliments, even when it’s only a suspicion. I wish more people would respect the fact that we all have different tastes, and not everyone is going to love that dress or hairstyle on oneself- and that’s okay. Fishing for compliments is in bad taste and shows a lack of confidence.
Good evening. Hope you had a great weekend. Have to say that the colour of your dress really suits you a lot. When you mention that a lot fo people find it hard to accept a compliment. I wish a lot of people would have the confindence to think of themselfes as someone special as well. Not just everyone else.
Thank you for the precious lesson! It's very useful especially for someone with a cultural background that is not so easy to give compliment. Keep up the good work ❤
Thank you for this video! I often thank the people who produced the video I watched, I hope it doesn't come across as inauthentic. I really am thankful.
Excellent points, thank you for very well prepared and concise answers ❤️ And this red shade truly elevates your aura! It’s definitely your color. Take care and look forward to your next content 🫶🏼
I am 76 American living in Thailand. Many expat women are overweight to obese and sometimes make snide remarks about my frame. I am petite and 41 kg. I have always been normal weight to thin. It is exercise and eating unprocessed foods. I NEVER take offense at any negative remarks because I learned that people who are mean are actually hurting inside. THEY need understanding, not further toxicity. If viewers make remarks about flat chest or no curves, YOU are the one interpreting it as a negative remark, Only YOU can be offended, It may be the person is pointing out what they deem a fact and the person does not realize that words can hurt. I admire that you used the neg pos combo "compliment" as examples in your talk today. By the way, you DO have curves. Your hips, you lovely neck, your forehead, the way your gorgeous hair cascades around your collarbone. YOU are a magnificent person, do not let neg words bother you!
Thank you for your kind words ❤️ And yes, I do agree with you that we let the words offend us. It is our interpretation of things but then you cannot always control how you feel about things that can be sensitive to you.
If someone says that I am pretty I’m always responding to them saying thanks you’re pretty too or you’re prettier 😊 Love your video so much you’re my role model please keep going 💗
These are one of the most useful tips I got from Jamila. Thank you as always. I had once had a stranger came to me, and commented on my shoes. She approached me at a park and said, "Oh, I love your shoes. My name is __, I am a personal trainer....". That's the worst sales pitch ever. I was wearing an old pair of running shoes that were cheap. Her compliment was very insincere. The "I love your shoes" compliment is so cliche I think everyone should ditch it. It is so insincere.
jamila u handled that rly well but i feel like those hate comments were not coming from a good place. the thing is is that they felt threatened by u abt something that they themselves felt insecure abt. it says more abt their character than it does urs. someone who truly loves themselves wouldn’t say that abt somebody else not even passive aggressively. i’ve always thought the opposite abt u. i felt like u are super feminine and u always wear these beautiful dresses and u have such a nice body and ur skin is always nice as well as ur hair. and i did noticed u are pale and i also loved that abt u. everyone is trying to get a tan when there’s rly nothing wrong w being pale. i think pale is beautiful. getting tan is actually not good for u and i appreciate how u take good care of ur beautiful skin
As always, very insightful. Thank you very much for the lesson. The only thing I have doubts about is when someone brings to our attention a trait of ours that is actually negative and holds true. Then, instead of owning it perhaps it is worth thinking about it and try to change for self-improvement.
If it something that you bothers you; if it something that others might perceive as weakness but is actually a strength, then no need to mold yourself into something others want you to be.
Maam please make a video on HOW TO DEAL WITH MEN AS AN ELEGANT WOMAN IN A PROFESSIONAL SETTING. BOUNDARIES DRESSING UP INTERACTION HOW AND WHAT TO TALK EYE CONTACT
@@Shokeen7077 a woman in a professional setting goes against nature, so then of course she's going to have difficulty dealing with men, since her true place should be as a homemaker with the family. If you choose to put yourself in an unnatural environment, understand you're out of your element, so you must always be on your guard and deal with the conflict between the sexes, then you will not be so disappointed and caught off guard by uncomfortable interactions, It's just going to be the nature of the beast in the professional environment.
Good day Jamila Thank you so much for posting this. I really learnt a lot today. May you do a video on book reviews? I enjoy those. Loads of Love from Eswatini
❤😮 Kindly guide how to choose friends how to make friends and how to judge and tackle when fellows use you instead of making good friendship. ❤❤❤❤ your guidence give calm to my brain
Thank you for shering your knowledg. Your videos are amesingly exsecuted and very helpfull. I would like to know how to deal with roud comments elegantly, and mean comments that being said intentinaly, your thoughts would be much appticiated.
Compliments usually come up in a small talk but when the reciever answers with only a 'thank you' it makes the small talk run dry. Should I say 'you are welcome', or how to move on from this (in my opinion) awkward situation?
I think saying you are welcome to a compliment makes it seem like you were trying to do a service rather than it was a pure admiration. You can always follow up with open ended questions to continue the conversation.
I would like if you could please explain the event like you said Blake tie formal semi formal and sach because personally i dont understand that and how it go Because from where I from we dont list that so everyone thinks what's appropriate to wear or to do for the occasion So i would like to have you explain that And your videos are always the best ❤ And would like to apologise for my English its not my first language
Just watched your great vid on communication etiquette, thx! I might have an idea for content? You're wearing a light blue shirt with light blue jeans - a lot of light blue haha! No, this isn't one of those passive aggressive, insult disguised as a compliment comments haha! Just wondered about black or tan or dark navy jeans to go with a light blue shirt? I also noticed you'll wear dark navy with black.. again, a bit unusual to what I thought about which colors go with which? You have a great sense of style, so maybe you could do a video on colors & matching? Thx
Hii mam Ranita this side from India. I am your old subscriber from long..You are the one,after watching you i took decision to make a teacher like you,as a professional engineer i want to take it side by side, planning to buy ur online courses..Can u make 1 video mam which quality need to have an Etiquette teacher (when someone is dreaming)? Also which certification need to be done? Please mam,its my request to make a video 🙏waiting for ur reply.. Your Ranita Bose❤
You are far too gracious, I am trying to learn from your good example, because I believe the insults mixed with compliments, disguised as flattery, come from a place of insecurity, jealousy & negativity
Thank you again for all these helpful tips. Maybe for the next content we can do a part 2 like how to "receive" or throw back an insult ? I don't know if that title is well fitted but something of that sort. Me being a Filipina gets some of this kind of (insulting/offensive) remark especially in the salon/spa/derm clinics in my own country. I tried salons and spas in other asian countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia and including India, but they don't speak out what's on their minds and throw unnecessary comments. Just a few months ago I had a bad experience in the salon, I had my hair rebond (straightening) treatment that I didn't do for the past 10 years of my life since I was born really curly, so the hairstylist went on and said "Ma'am are you from an Igorot Tribe? (Tribe from the mountains) (No offense to that tribe please.) But I was shocked to hear that, I just raised my eyebrows and said " SAY WHAT?" Then she changed the topic. I really wanted to walk out but I was in the process of my treatment. Sad because I know in this community we try to improve ourselves to be as gentlewomen or graceful women as we can be. But people who have no manners sometimes really get into my nerves. Now how do we graciously respond to this scenario. ❤ Thank you in advance. ❤ I hope I made sense.
need video on how to take revenge when someone insults you in college or institution. how to tell your family and teachers about danger when no one hear your issue or ignore
Jamila- I love your posts. However lately you’ve become more ‘American’ . This means repeating the point ad infinitum, padding the point with fluff, diverting from the essential point. Please go back to your formal ways without unnecessary fluff.
Jamila… I love you girl… but the way you are sitting in the video… OUCH.. hurts my spine😅… I know a lot of females sit in that manner thinking it’s “lady like”, but it’s not. It’s bad for your spine. The correct way is to sit with one feet crossed behind the other tucked into you. Not on top of each other. Not to “correct”, an etiquette lady. I’m sure you know, n just like sitting in that way😊 I’m just sharing for those who don’t know. Of course each person, DO YOU, but just know sitting with one leg crossed over the other, REALLY messes with your spine alignment.

I agree but sometimes there are no ill intentions. Every case is different.
Is this a repeat ?
I think this topic came up in previous videos and there was not a dedicated one about compliments. Almost all the tips sounded familiar to me as well.
This was never done before and there are no similar videos on this on my channel. What are you referring to?
Westerners are considered as important in east. So you may receive a lot of compliments in asia.
