“1. (adjective) Cultured, refined, and well mannered. 2. (noun) Good manners; refinement.”

Google Dictionary

My grandmother was not a woman to mince words. She said what she meant, and she meant what she said. How you took it was completely up to you. She carried herself as a woman above reproach; classy, cultured and refined. She always made it clear when she didn’t care for someone. And if you would ask her why, she would simply say, “They don’t have no couth.” As a kid, I didn’t understand what it meant, but I certainly didn’t want her to ever say that about me. Now that she’s gone, I strive daily to live my life, and my Second Life, in a way that would make her proud.

Some people see it as being bougie, snobby or high saditty. And if we are honest, some will alway see me and say “Now here comes this bitch.” To those, I simply say, “You don’t have no couth.”
