I saw someone post this picture in r.s.s. Apparently, the guy was upset that he wasn't let in a pool in Czechoslovakia where he was visiting (he's from the U.S.) Have you seen these kind of signs elsewhere? Not that I'm against them, I'm perfectly fine wearing the "approved" attire.

Geek, you just proved Heather's point by your thread, nothing more...You like the power play, huh?Like being a bully?Kicking a weak's kid's butt?That is not a strength but a weakness...It is nothing but arrogance, ignorance and lack of respect for the rest of the world!Talk about manners!!!That is why I am feard to raise my kids in this country.People do not know how to treat other people anymore - the "bully" attitude and "I do not care about the rest of the world" type of ignorance does not just affect overseas countries, it already sucked in the heads of many Americans, or should I say US citizens?You do not even realise that the country suffering from that approach is USA itself, since people think they are the best , and hey - if you are the best, then why learn and explore new things and places???Non progredi est regredi(not progressing means regressing - latin proverb).And that arrogance and lack of manners will not affect other countries, either, it will just pass on to you fellow Americans who will give you the same attitude back, that is how a mentality is built.And then you end up with feminism, people suing other people for no reason, highest divorce rate because people are too good for each other, etc.You are ruining your own country with that attitude without realizing it.
I am appauled at some ways guys treat women here as an example.Where I am from a guy will ALWAYS let the lady first in an establishment, will ALWAYS bring flowers on a date, open the car door for her, help her with a chair in a restaurant or whatnot.I hardly ever see it here.And then the way guys talk to girls, too - I am not even going there.And that is in every way of life, not just relationship.
P.S. History shows that every empire comes to an end by pretty much destroying itself, because people reach the "I can do whatever I want" status quo and that is a path to failure.
PP.S.It is how people percieve life and other people , how they fit(or not) manners into actions,how much respect they give to others that makes a country strong
