What things do you wish were socially acceptable?

[PrawnSalads]

I wish that you could ask random people to bring their dogs(And other animals) round for a playdate.(With me) I see so many new dogs and I wish people would bring them to my door so I could meet them.

Likewise with newborn babies.

I also wish that it was ok to ask everyone's name or to wear name badges. I'm fascinated by first names and I always want to ask baby and children's names and why the parents chose them.

What do you wish was socially acceptable?

Shouting “try harder” at someone out exercising may make them laugh outwardly but I bet it makes some cry once you’ve gone.

it’s a vile thing to do.

Telling loud people to lower on the volume on trains and in cafes etc.

Being drunk in the daytime 🤣

I came to say beer for breakfast

Asking people to leave your house when you want them to.....!

Leaving a work meeting because it’s so
boring and telling everyone why!

To dress for comfort rather than style / fashion / formality / attractiveness. It’s fucking boiling here, I want to wear a comfy sleeping bra, pants and a massive wafty kaftan to work - and no shoes. 🤷‍♀️🙄

Taki g your bra off on the Tube in the evening rush hour on a Friday when the temperature is 32 degrees. (Obv using the 'unclasp, pull one arm out, pull the bra out of the other arm hole method and putting it into your handbag sharpish).

You think white English people all are darker of skin? 🤔My pale mostly redheaded English family must be some strange anomaly, then (except we absolutely are not). And yes it is very tiresome to here how pale I/my kids are.

The thing is, tanning only became fashionable here in the 1930s. Before that, pale skin was fashionable in England, because it showed you didnt have to work outside as a labourer. By the 1930s, that had changed and a tan advertised that you were wealthy enough afford a holiday abroad in the sun, away from these rainy overcast islands.

Discrimination against the Irish and Welsh has been around in England for centuries. It was down to cultural/ethnic propaganda that was used as a justification for colonising and exploiting Ireland and Wales. Irish and Welsh people's skin colour was not a factor in this.

@midsomermurderess I used to think my Dutch friend was so rude, especially in what's app as I couldn't get the tone of the messages.

Then I realised her way of just saying it how it is, was much better.

I saw people doing yoga at Heathrow at Christmas.
