DrPhil has not once used those two words in this thread. You have. Gusteau has. The OP has. Irishlake has. WTF are you talking about?
Please tell me where in the following post "I think" occurs.

Etiquette is generally a good thing and it helps you to mingle in different environments. However, I recommend caution for these kinds of programs for two reasons:
1. People have differing opinions on some parts of etiquette. Make sure you are teaching business etiquette and aren't just teaching "stereotypically southern etiquette."
2. Make sure you know the difference between table etiquette and "teaching gender." I believe in teaching people how to eat at the table and other basic things but I don't agree with teaching people things like "women have to do this and men have to do that." Some etiquette classes delve into the gender part of it all. Blah.
In other words, don't be surprised if some people are resistant to certain aspects of table etiquette because, beyond the formality of it all, some of it seems ridiculous to some people.

Now, go back and analyze where it is her personal opinion "I believe" and where it is a more generalized statement "some people."
There'll be a quiz.
