What is the ettiquette for a baby shower for a second child?
I’m pregnant with my second child and just found out it’s a boy (my first is a girl). Do people have baby showers for children other than their first?
We don’t need anything (or want to ask anyone for anything) and can afford to get what we need. I just know all my family and friends will get us something anyway so I thought it might be nice to get together and give them treats and whatnot. What do you think?
As I understand it, it is acceptable (according to "etiquette") for you to have a shower for your son since your first baby was a little girl
I have two boys and I wanted to celebrate the arrival of my second son as well…but seeing as I already had everything I needed for his arrival (and "etiquette" says no shower for same-gender baby number two) My sister hosted a "casserole" shower for me instead! It was a lot of fun and in the invitations she printed up a cute saying asking the guests to bring a freezable casserole instead of a gift
It was a great idea!!
"What about showers for a second baby?
It is perfectly acceptable to host a shower for a second baby. After all, the parents will need a few new items. However, proper etiquette states that only family members and very close friends should be invited to the shower of a second child, although you can invite people who did not attend showers for the first child."

How did the practice (ettiquette) of removing one’s hat while dining originate?
A friend was recently chastized by his grandmother for wearing a hat at the table while in a restaurant. We are trying to understand how this rule of ettiquette came about and what purpose it serves.
I saw something on TV just the other day, some celebrity wearing his hat at in the dining area, and I was thinking, How disrespectful.
Not really sure where it originated, but one possibility.
I know in Navy ships you always remove your cover(hat) before entering the mess deck.
This was because the mess decks were the battle dressing area during battle. This was to respect the people that had died there.
This could have been picked up from people traveling by ship and carried over to others.

What is the proper ettiquette response to excuse me?
If somebody says excuse me what is the proper thing to say?? Oh sure, or No problem, or Your Welcome? Remember it is proper ettiquette.
If you are walking in the mall, and you have to get through and they are in the way you say "excuse me" what is the proper response? Your Welcome??
"Certainly."
If they say "Thank-you" then you may reply "You’re welcome."
Is it better ettiquette for a lady to keep her knees touching each other on the toilet?
touching/as close to each other? It may be more practical to have them far apart, but it seems like poor ettiquette.
I think the whole principals of etiquette are relating to how other people see you and how you are percieved by your behaviour – acting in a certain way gives certain perceptions to other people so I don’t personally think there is etiquette attached to how you sit onthe toilet as no-one is there to see you!
Title says it all.
