Begin Here: The Society of Ordinary Gentlemen
The Society of Ordinary Gentlemen, the O.G.’s of Gentlemanly Behavior, was created to provide a haven where gentlemen and ladies can communicate with each other in a polite and courteous setting. While many discussions will center around genteel behavior, humor, fashion, food, mental and physical well-being, and the active mentoring of a new generation of gentlemen, no topic of discussion is off limits provided the discussion is conducted within the Code of Conduct of the Society. The Society of Ordinary Gents is not a platform for recruiting members into sub-groups, special membership groups, or educational or financial opportunities. Poachers, Charlatans, or Internet Self-Help Gurus will be banned. The Society is not going to teach you how to be James Bond, John Wick, or the secret methods to make women want you. The Society is not a for-profit group or business. Essentially, The Society of Ordinary Gents is the online equivalent of friends enjoying a cigar, a bourbon and the company of others, as we discuss meaningful and trivial matters sitting in comfortable chairs. Membership: - Must Be a Legal Adult - Name, Age Range, Occupation/Status, General Location on Profile is Recommended - Hobbies and Interest on Profile is Recommended - An Alias is Acceptable for Privacy. - Introductory Posts are Required within 72 hours.

Personal Grooming, The Discipline of Presence and Self-Respect
Few practices refine a man’s presence as swiftly and unequivocally as thoughtful grooming. Conversely, nothing sabotages even the most impeccable attire more efficiently than disregard for basic personal maintenance. Grooming, in its truest sense, is not a cosmetic indulgence; it is a mode of self-respect—a discipline of embodiment that signals order, intentionality, and regard for others. The advantage is democratic: any man, regardless of income, can achieve an elevated physical presence with attentiveness and consistency. Cleanliness is the foundational axiom of grooming. Daily bathing is not a matter of vanity but of physiology and social grace. Sweat, oils, and environmental particulates accumulate on the skin, fostering odor and dullness. A single daily shower is sufficient for most men, though those in hot climates, intensive workouts, or high-stress occupations may require more. Below, I would like to share with you discerning gentlemen a video from the renowned Gentleman's Gazette. It provides a laconic survey into the crucial areas of personal grooming. (Please feel free to share with the younger generation - who showering once a week suffices!) Alas, looking refined does not require expensive brands or complex rituals. What it requires is discipline: the daily, almost liturgical commitment to ordered habits. Grooming is the external manifestation of internal coherence. It signals to the world—and to oneself—that one is awake, intentional, and ready to participate meaningfully in life. The true gentleman does not groom for vanity. He grooms as an act of respect: for his own dignity, for those he encounters, and for the life he intends to embody.

Holidays 8 December 2025
👷👷♀️👷♂️National Blue Collar Day👷♂️👷♂️👷 Have you ever heard of National Blue Collar Day? It’s celebrated every December 8 to honor the hardworking people in blue-collar jobs. These crucial yet often undervalued jobs keep our communities running smoothly every day. This day shines a spotlight on those who perform physical work in fields like construction, manufacturing, and maintenance. Blue-collar workers build, maintain, and repair the infrastructure we depend on, from roads to buildings to homes. The importance of celebrating National Blue Collar Day cannot be overstated. It recognizes these workers’ essential role in our economy and acknowledges their dedication and effort. Their contributions are vital, yet they are frequently overlooked in society. This special day helps bring much-deserved appreciation and respect to the forefront. 👷History of National Blue Collar Day👷♀️ National Blue Collar Day was established in 2019 by Todd Sohn. This day is dedicated to recognizing the critical contributions of blue-collar workers, who perform essential manual labor in various industries such as construction, manufacturing, and maintenance. The creation of this day aimed to raise awareness and appreciation for the working class, who are fundamental to the functioning of society but often go unnoticed. The term “blue-collar” dates back to 1924, used to distinguish manual laborers who often wore durable blue denim or chambray shirts as part of their uniforms. The recognition of blue-collar workers and their roles has deep roots in the history of labor movements, highlighting the need to acknowledge and value their hard work and the physical nature of their jobs. This day honors the dedication and skill of blue-collar workers and acknowledges their significant role in building and maintaining the infrastructure of our daily lives. The establishment of National Blue Collar Day reflects a broader historical appreciation of labor rights and the ongoing efforts to improve working conditions for these crucial members of the workforce.
