As far as why it is rude - just common courtesy! Is picking your nose at the table rude? Is a loud burp in a restaurant rude? Is a loud fart in the elevator rude? Is taking off your shoe and smelling the inside of it in church rude? Is passing the shoe to your wife in church for her to smell rude?

Answer to all the above is YES. Common courtesy is WHY. How did your mother raise you?



If you actually have to explain that being 'rude' is primarily ignoring (or maybe not knowing) what has been accepted as societal norms of decency and courtesy...then you're probably wasting your typing.
