Properness Etiquette System

An old, extensive series of social norms and expectations that indicate what types of behaviors and social practices are and are not acceptable in various social situations. A majority of the rules employed in the modern properness system come from medieval times and were first created in Europe. There are different rules for males and females, regarding how they are to treat each other and behave in each other’s presences; what gender an individual identifies as determines which gender type of rules they are expected to follow. Many of the rules are out of date with times and tend to be quite biased against the poor, women, LGBTQ people, people with disabilities and other species.

The properness etiquette system is in urgent need of reform in order to make it more up to date with the times, more effective, and less biased against various populations.

Spoiler Etiquette

The time at which it is deemed acceptable for a movie/TV show plot to be discussed in your group of friends without being worried about ruining it for others, because fans of the film/episode would have watched it as soon as they were able to.

Movies - 1 week. Fans of the film would be able to attend a screening within one week of the films release.

TV shows - 1 day. The true lovers of this show will live stream it or record/TiVo the episode and watch it as soon as possible.

"Dude, why are you so mad that I talked about who died in Game of Thrones this week? The show aired on Wednesday and it's Saturday. Spoiler etiquette has been upheld!"
