This week, Kate talks about the controversial list of 141 rules The Cut/NY Mag came out with that were positioned as a revised etiquette guide for modern society. First, she dives into some of the histories of western etiquette, snorkels Emily Post & the gang, reflects on her time in cotillion, learning to be ‘ladylike’ in pop culture, and her issues with classism and ‘old vs. new money’ convos. She then ventures into some of her takes on the list and peppers in listener emails about their responses to the article and shares additional rules they’d implement in their personal etiquette guides. Enjoy!
