I guess I was talking about the people that don't know about the culture you guys say they are part of.

For some reason, you're reading things into the original statement that are not there. "An etiquette exists in a culture" does not mean everyone has to follow or even be aware of it.

I would say I'm accurately reading "Western culture" as a nonsensical concept.

Add an s and it gets a little better.

If mentally adding an "s" to the original comment enables you move past this issue and actually consider the comment as it was intended, then I would say that is well done and worth the effort to get to this point. :) Have a great Sunday!

What do you think "reading" means?

Please don't do passive aggression here :(

Yeah, I see the problem. It's not a good way to convey what I was trying to say. Thanks for calling it out.
