Public rudeness or incivility is everywhere you look. It is the note someone leaves on your car for parking too close to the lines; it is the snapping at the cashier in the grocery store when she won't take your coupon, and it is in the media. Look at Howard Stern, Jerry Springer and the like. In this country at present, it is becoming acceptable to be as rude as you want. This is the thing that makes me mad. Social progress in our country has slowed down by quite a bit. I have been alive for 18 years, and I can even remember a time when showing a woman in her bathing suit on TV was risque. In the recent years, I have seen much more of the female body on TV than I have ever wanted to. TV and censorship is not really helping either. I have seen too many TV shows where the little "bleep" is heard more than the person's voice. You can't even understand the entire sentence because much of it has been "bleeped" out. If you have ever seen the Howard Stern show, you would know how much he degrades women, and when you do that on TV it somehow makes it okay. He's been heard to say "I'd do you", and that is probably one of the tamest things heard on that show. Even watching reality show rated TV14, you hear more swearin |

There is still hope for Americans and every country suffering from this rudeness epidemic. If reality TV shows have taught me anything useful, its that you need to really get to know someone before you can trust them. They already had waters, so I asked them if they wanted pop. "According to surveys taken in the US, fully eight out of 10 Americans consider incivility to be a serious problem, while 61% think it has worsened in the recent years" ("Rude" 2). We were permitted to watch the same shows too. They were being a little rowdy, making sexual comments to me, and trying to get my phone number. I kept the note, because I thought it was kind of funny and ironic. I am not alone in my perspective; "a University of Michigan researcher found that 71 percent of workers surveyed have been insulted, demeaned, ignored, or otherwise treated discourteously by their co-workers and superiors" ("Rudeness" 1). Luckily, I don't work there anymore, I got fed up and quit. What kind of merits does he have to do that to a complete stranger? None. You may think that I am being oversensitive, or am very straightlaced. This really shows me that people can be just plain rude. No one wants to watch The Cosby Show or Family Matters anymore. I have also been grabbed at a few times and while at first it hurts and I didn't know how to react, pretty soon I became accustomed to everything, so nothing really shocks me anymore at work, I just ignore it and know not to take it to heart. These acts are pointless and only serve to hurt others. Some topics in this essay:
