Families have their own rules for how male and female members should talk and behave. Think back to the advice you have heard in your family or to the rules you have noticed family members following. Describe your family’s implicit (unspoken) or explicit (articulated) rules about polite talk and behavior.

My family's unspoken rules about polite talk and behavior is how they acted in front of my parents. For example, if someone called my dad 'dawg' instead of sir, they would not be allowed back into my house. Certain piercings, tattoos, and even table manners all affected if my parents allowed this person back into their house and I would always have to follow these same rules.
