Probably the same folks who made up the rule that you hold a door open and allow the woman behind you, to walk through first.

.... or maybe the rule that says you're supposed to put the toilet seat back down?

.... or the rule that says you can't walk into a restaurant, naked.

They're old "rules" and if you live in The Villages, you're not going to live long enough to see them changed.
