Episode Details

A mom-to-be’s friend is going wild over baby shower etiquette, insisting expectant parents shouldn’t host their own showers—especially if men are invited. The mom argues it’s totally fine since her daughter-in-law is handling the planning and paying. Miss Manners says etiquette evolves, applauds including men, but questions why people invite others to honor themselves—and warns against friends policing moms like they’re stuck in the fifties. Then, a dating dilemma: two guys use fingers to push food onto forks at nice restaurants. Miss Manners suggests taking one to a super formal place, whispering beforehand that finger-feeding isn’t allowed—and only if you think he’s worth the effort. Bottom line: etiquette’s always changing, and sometimes folks misuse it to judge instead of just enjoying the moment.
