思想史：餐桌禮儀的演變！ (HISTORY OF IDEAS - Manners)
- There is unwitting cruelty and political subterfuge in the defence of natural manners which suggest we are all equal when we are not, or which allow one gender to pester another. There is a fine line between being natural about things and being bothersome to others, a line we are continuing to explore, often at great cost to all concerned. There are no doubt many behaviours which many of us subscribe to now, which at a later age may come to see as no less vulgar than Catherine de' Medici found a meal without a fork. The aspiration to be well-mannered shouldn't be seen as pretentious or fake. It should be generously interpreted as always belonging to a highly important wish not to cause other people distress through one's impulses and needs. The history of manners goes on.
