How to Be a Gentleman Revised and Expanded: A Timely Guide to Timeless Manners (Revised, Expanded)
How to Be a Gentleman Revised and Expanded: A Timely Guide to Timeless Manners (Revised, Expanded) | John Bridges
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Practical advice on being a gentleman in the twenty-first century.Being a gentleman isn't just being a nice guy, or a considerate guy, or the type of guy someone might take home to meet their mother. A gentleman realizes that he has the unique opportunity to distinguish himself from the rest of the crowd. He knows when an email is appropriate, and when nothing less than a handwritten note will do. He knows how to dress on the golf course, in church, and at a party. He knows how to breeze through an airport without the slightest fumble of his carry-on or boarding pass. And those conversational icebreakers--"Where do I know you from?" A gentleman knows better. Gentlemanliness is all in the details, and John Bridges is reclaiming the idea that men--gentlemen--can be extraordinary in every facet of their lives.

I read this book as a lark, expecting it to be much more ridiculous than it was. There‘s almost no toxic masculinity in here and I was impressed with the focus on treating others with respect and consideration. Most people would do well to read this, even if they “waste money on Pilsner glasses” or wear linen year round 😉
