The Culture of Getting into Bed out of Social Politeness
We often find ourselves in situations where, when two people of the opposite sex are alone together, they end up getting into bed out of politeness. This behavior appears intimate, but in reality, it's not driven by love or attraction, but rather by social necessity, much like shaking hands. This phenomenon prompts us to think about how the culture of getting into bed out of social politeness came to be.
In social settings, we often view shaking hands as a basic polite gesture. However, when two people are alone, getting into bed seems to have become a similar polite behavior. This raises questions about whether we've lost our true understanding of intimate relationships.
When we get into bed, we usually hope it's driven by genuine emotions and attraction. But when this behavior becomes a social politeness, we start to lose sight of our true needs. We begin to abandon our authentic feelings to avoid awkwardness or impoliteness.
This phenomenon also makes us think about how we should define social politeness. Have we overemphasized social politeness at the expense of respecting our genuine feelings?
Regardless, this culture of getting into bed out of social politeness has us reflecting on how to stay true to ourselves in social situations.
