This education is little taught today, being replaced by immediate offense, banishment, laws and litigation.

However, upon reading a biography of Grace Kelly-Princess Grace, I realized this girl/woman had gone to finishing school, and learned! Two examples.

1). During her first movie with Alfred Hitchcock, Dial M for Murder, the director told an obvious, vulgar joke to Ray Milland, the male star, while Grace Kelly was within earshot. Hitchcock wanted to observe the nice, proper, blonde actress’s reaction. Grace responded, I went to a Catholic Covent school as a teenager, and I heard that joke eight years ago.

Hitchcock liked the response.

2) Marilyn Monroe posed for an early issue of Playboy, and later a reporter asked her, What do you wear to bed? Monroe’s fabulous response: “Chanel No. 5.”
Later, a reporter asked Grace Kelly what she wore to bed. Kelly: I don’t think that’s anyone’s business, because if it became known, my life would be laid out like it was in a magazine.
