'Polite conversation' course for young women sparks backlash - BBC News
A Canadian school course that teaches girls about hairstyles, dinner party etiquette and "polite conversation" has sparked a backlash. The optional course at Eleanor Hall School in Clyde, Alberta, is to help young girls "navigate adolescence" with "self-esteem intact". It has met broad criticism, with one critic calling it a "sort of neo-1950s etiquette class".
