      Victor Cavazos i agree, and nice Kingsman reference, but I do not believe he portrayed the entire idea perfectly. His comments on please and thank you were correct and useful, but the rest was a bit sloppy. Especially when he says that profanity is the beat way to sound dumb, but stumbles over his own words for 5 seconds, which is the easiest way to sound dumb. He made points that did not need to be made and also showed a lack of understanding of the topic by not including many key rules.

    • @g-man6677
      @g-man6677 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      And to be clear, I do agree with what he said, but there are other points he should have made, so points he did not need to make like the thank you point, which could have gone with please. He also should have been more careful to not break his own rules in my opinion

    • @g-man6677
      @g-man6677 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh, and I am sorry but one more thing to add on him breaking his own rules. He makes subtle sexist remarks all the time. In the past he has said both, “ the way I see it, women drink wine, guys drink beer, and gentlemen drink whiskey” and also “A gentleman must drink one of 3 masculine drinks” to quote a few. These are both very subjective and borderline sexist.

    I am a British offer cadet who has just finished training. We learn how to be gentlemen in all aspects from negotiations on the battlefield, or parley. To hosting a banquet and in general life. I think all men should learn the quality's of being a gentleman as there would be far less violence, racism and all the other evils in the world.

Everyone has their shortcomings; being able to apologize for them quickly and without digging yourself in deeper is a must if you want to make up for them and move on with your life. Anecdotally, the first time I met a guy who could apologize well, I thought "holy crap, I'm gonna marry that man," and that's exactly what I did :)

      Yes, life *is* easier when you aren't worrying about "appeasing others" (i.e. being a decent human being). That doesn't make it a good idea, nor does it make it the course of action that will lead to your own long-term happiness. If you're always doing whatever is easiest rather than expending a little more effort to be a good person, you aren't going to get very far in life.

No offence or anything, i just find it hard to change how i speak to other people, and if my speaking is a part of my personality. And it says that you cannot change your personality i am going to have some trouble with changing the way i speak to make myself more respescted. PS Aron, love your videoes man, you are a great guy!

      You don't have to change the way you speak but you must know how to speak with different people. I have two modes. Business mode and friends mode. I drop F word in front of my friends but on work I'm like James Bond. But on work I use different words and speak in different way. He talks about manners and bonton that everybody MUST have regardless where are you from. if you from the "hood" or top society its not hard to say thank you and please, keep door for someone or help someone to put begs in the bus. That is just me but people are different.

    Hi. I'm 16 years old, and am not opposed to the LGBTQ community, other cultures/religions, races, sexes, etc. I am constantly surrounded by statements that are sexist, racist, homophobic(discriminatory comments, jokes, etc.). It Is baffling to me that people my age, younger, and older than me alike say things like that. Now I'm not that a person that gets offended by everything, but I know when enough is enough, and when offensive is offensive. My request to people out there is please be respectful with your humor, if you're joking, and if you just don't agree with that group of people, (LGBT, a specific gender, a specific race, etc.) Keep the following in mind? It's 100% to disagree with people. But don't force other individuals with their own opinions and morals to follow/live by YOUR opinions and morals if they don't want to. For example: if you don't approve of gay marriage, don't marry a person your same gender. If you think abortion is evil, don't have an abortion. But DO NOT force other people to live by your opinions or morals. Thank you everyone. (P.S. Great video, I am a sub and love your videos, thank you for making them)
