Do we think about 'good breeding' in humans anymore?

I wish more people did think in these terms. I get so tired of people bragging about themselves of theirs and adding put downs on others

I have to say, that ol' Sam there probably had a point!

good breeding I don't think I am a horse and that is what I think of that term and I would never use it for a human.

I guess that makes good sense. Nobody likes a bragger, nor do they like a hostile person. I will say though, that you should love yourself before others can love you, meaning that you should think your deeds and words are caring ones, and others will too. Brightest Blessings.

I do not agree with Mark Twain in his quotation. Good breeding to me is a display of appropriate behaviour sincerely and not an attempt to conceal our weakness. I may not think about "good breeding" anymore, but I am constantly conscious of my own behaviour. People who misbehave in front of me is simply a reminder that this is something I do not like and hence cannot behave so.

Hi raydene! I have seen and met so many people with good breeding and I really like being around these people very much. I enjoy their company because respect amongst each other is always there. I really avoid people who thinks of themselves as high and almighty and bad mouthed other people just to make themselves look really good. Such shameful behavior if I may so! Take care and blessings to you! lovelots..faith

I'm sure we do, even if only sublimally.

Good breeding. Didn't they refer to that as rich with rich and poor with poor? I don't think mant really go by that anymore, but I am sure there are still those people that don't allow their child to be with a certain someone because of there family or background. I don't really think it should matter as long as two people are happy.
