Quote:Why is politeness "ethical"? Surely it's just "polite"?
You're right. Good manners are ethically neutral.They may be genuine or used to manipulate others.
I do try to be polite, really I do,but as they say "the road to hell is saved with good intentions"
Guess it's a character flaw;I'm unable to suffer fools,so my good intentions fly out the window.I have actually been known to say some very unkind things
