Our society, to put it bluntly, is another Hoverville with a little more class. What ever happened to the proper way of speaking, dress, and communication in general?
Our society no longer takes pride in propriety, but rather encourage to be cosmetically educated. We are so caught up in the need to be a so called "gangster" age slandering the English language. True slang is a part of our language, but do we really need the false accent of being black everywhere? I don't remember any of us as children speaking this way. We are so caught up in the fame stardom propaganda that we can't even create our own individual image. How did we change from the fearless expressions of our youth to overbearing concern of our self image?
We care so much of what's "In" that even the way we dress has been influenced. True there are great clothing lines out there with clothing that has it's own accepted style, but the was I see it is if a person chooses their look only according to recent stars out there rather than looking out for their own tastes then there lies the problem.
Another thing that puts our society to shame is he amount we curse at each other. My moral values stand where I don't curse at all. I don't mind if people do around me but I just listen to how people can slander the English language so much. People today have grown to sounding so uneducated and juvenile. Because of the new propaganda, our generation has come to terms that cursing every other word is acceptable. To me to be able to have an argument or any type of conversation you must present yourself with dignity and using such vulgar language just puts you in a position where all you have are curse words without the education the support what ever point you want across.
What has our generation come to? Are people whom have proper etiquette a rare breed?
What ever happened to the ladies and gentlemen of our society? Where are our Elizabeths' and Mr. Darcys'?
Perfect example of what I'm talking about it the movie My Fair Lady. If you can watch a classic like that and understand it and its meaning then you my friend are most likely part of this rare breed.
Until next time
