Hi. I am Alan Ianke, I live in Brazil and I really enjoy the Gentleman's Gazette channel. Thank you very much for this video. It's going to help me a lot on my current project at my job.
Gotta make sure the highest ranking person goes last, they get the exploding fist bump and it's poor taste to do that more than once in a group fist bump.
Well done, Preston!! I'm looking forward to seeing you in future videos!! :D Thanks for uploading this very helpful video, I just started working my first job and this video was very handy!!
Very well done! We all do well to brush up on our manners and proper etiquette. I love the pairing of the shirt and jacket, the colors are subtle and wonderful together.
When living in the US for a year I was constantly in awe about how at ease people generally are when introducing people to each other or when starting a talk with a total stranger. I suspect a few of the rules you have outlined would have to be adjusted in different countries or cultures. I would love to hear from asian, african or latin american viewers if this was the case in their countries. Excellent tie knot by the way!
Something I've always found challenging, thank you for clarifying Mr. Schlueter. You are a joy to listen to (and might I be so bold to say...very handsome).
Nicely done once again, dear fellow. The matter of rank had not occurred to me, but as I think of it, this approach to introductions often happens naturally. It is helpful to be more mindful of it, though. Having a memory like Swiss cheese, I have resorted to the "prompt" style of introduction more often than I care to admit.
Great video, with principles straight from Emily Post herself! I do recall that Mrs. Post includes one additional parameter in determining rank: gender. Women, says Mrs. Post, are of a higher rank than men, and so even an older gentleman is introduced to a young woman, rather than the other way around. I tend to follow this, and it serves me well. It seems feminist, in a fashion, without being condescending. Still, I can see why making ANY distinction based on gender can be seen by some as inappropriate. Is this why the parameter of gender was omitted from the video? Have you any thoughts about whether the parameter is valid in the 21st century? I’d appreciate any thoughts
Thanks for your question, Talha! The simple answer is that when we conducted our research for this video, none of the sources we consulted raised this consideration of gender. As a point of fact, even the official website for the Emily Post Institute (which was one of our sources) no longer features such a consideration. All we would say in addition is that if this method has worked for you, you may certainly keep using it. Cheers! - Preston
Invaluable information, thank you. About forgetting names, if you forget one person's name when making introductions I have used a method whereby I look at the person I have forgotten the name of while indicating the person I know and introduce them by name. The person so who's name I have forgotten usually then will introduce themself to the other person, and we both then have the forgotten name. If I am left hanging I simply then tell the person I forgot the name of I have had a sudden memory blank and they then make their own introduction. Once again, thank you for the excellent videos.
Thank you for your educational videos. Just a small remark, there is a difference between professional and social settings. In any social setting, a gentleman should be introduced to a lady out of respect. I am not considering royal protocol when referring to the social setting.
I've gotta say, while I love the videos and appreciate the time and information...I'd love to see the lighting corrected a bit to make you guys look even better. In many videos the light is too low giving the "horror movie" effect or too strong, creating bad hot spots. I may be overly picky since I work in the photo realm but it would truly elevate the vids. But great info and keep up the work!
Thank you Preston nice reminders. I follow these steps and often have the need to use them. I am one of those people unfortunately that forgets the name moments later as i take in the details of the conversation.
Hey GG, this may seem like a silly request, but is there a good guild on how to TUCK your shirt properly? Possibly with different outfit styles and materials.
I think there is a detail to decide who should be introduced first if both my aquaintences are of equal status. The person with whom I come to an event/that I bring up to someone else should be named first in my opinion. I have spent more time with this person and the other is new to the situation, therefore the person I am aproaching with my friend should be named last. Am I making sense? :)
Make a video on how to act like a strong cool gentleman hero, by that i mean: body language, how to walk, how to stand, how to talk, how to control facial expressions, how to sit and how to interact with different kind of people
I love Gentlemen’s Gazette. I always wonder, why do you wear your glasses in the way that your eyes are almost hidden behind the upper part of the frame of your glasses? Is that on purpose? Wouldn’t it be nicer to have them more in the middle of the glasses?
Light reflection on glasses is something that needs to be considered when producing videos. It is very common to see “odd” angles on eyewear when studio lights are involved.
: D my friend and I worked out another sneaky intro when one of us (say me!) forgets a name: we signal the other and they extend their hand, introducing them self, (grammar?!) then the forgotten name dude tells my friend their name and I take note!
The hand shake is getting shaky. More and more people don't like to shake do to fear of illness. It is always slightly uncomfortable when you hold out your hand to be left holding it out.
Good Information. I'm not sure that jacket fits you very well (size wise.) Looks a little on the large size. Maybe because it's cotton. (Sorry, if it's impolite to point this out, before I introduce myself.)
So, 'lay some skin blud' was a bad introduction choice when I was at a party with my wife some time back: she's a doctor and I was engaging with the Professor of Surgery.....;-)
I see some people enjoy this type of videos, but I honestly do not. I subscribed for sartorial things and discussion revolving around that topic. Nice tie tho.
raphael's suits are so much nicer than this guy's. Love the new guy's content, but you can even see how the peak lapels of raphael's suits are usually of a more vintage, lower position. I just think raphael looks more comfortable with his style
Fire your tailor. And while you are at it, quit annunciating words as if you're a bloody anorak whose name should be _Jeeves._ My goodness. This channel is absolutely lost in the plot.
You sir are a very eloquent speaker. Nice work
I need to learn how to act in social situations and these videos are useful for me. I just want to thank you for making these videos.
Hi. I am Alan Ianke, I live in Brazil and I really enjoy the Gentleman's Gazette channel. Thank you very much for this video. It's going to help me a lot on my current project at my job.
I really like this guys vibe.
Thank you for using multiple examples while explaining and covering everything in the video. Definitely helped me clearly understand everything.
Very good stuff to know! Being socially adapted and well rounded just makes life easier for you and everyone around you.
This site is like a breath of ocean air, like drinking from a cool spring. I raise my glass to you.
Like taking a swan dive in the cool, refreshing waters of Lake Titicaca!
Watching him talk is mesmerizing
I am female and this information is useful to me. Thank you.
Their etiquette lessons apply to everyone.
Thanks Preston these seem intuitive but it's well worth knowing them formally 😉👍🏼
Will be presenting and socializing tomorrow night. This is timely information to take with me.
Thank you, I never considered the “ranking” and I will be sure to pay attention to this moving forward!
Japanese always consider it, even when they're normally talking.
I usually fist bump all the gathered.

Hello Preston, your green tie to your grey suit is a splendid combination. I always enjoy your precise language and the channel. Best regards
Very well done! We all do well to brush up on our manners and proper etiquette. I love the pairing of the shirt and jacket, the colors are subtle and wonderful together.
4:10 As soon as he said, "Grandma", I started laughing
Well spoke, at 53 years old I am always learning. Thank you Sir!
Very nice jacket and tie. Preston's English is crystal clear and the texts are so well written, we must admit.

Thank you. Something we need to be reminded of once and awhile!
I actually learned this in French class in elementary school. "Je vous present Monsieur Thibault."
Great video! Very helpful video Mr.Preston Schlueter.
Something I've always found challenging, thank you for clarifying Mr. Schlueter. You are a joy to listen to (and might I be so bold to say...very handsome).
Nice one Mr. Schlueter! I really enjoy this playlist!

Getting motion sickness from the camera moving when Preston is talking. Great video none-the-less!

Talha Mukhtar thank you! I am not the only one who does this in an old fashioned way, when female always ranks higher.

You’re nailing it!
Just missing one small thing. You didn't cover a "friend of mine" vs "a friend of ours" when making introductions.
Good to be reminded. I picked up most of these somewhere in my growing up years.
Invaluable information, thank you. About forgetting names, if you forget one person's name when making introductions I have used a method whereby I look at the person I have forgotten the name of while indicating the person I know and introduce them by name.

Once again, thank you for the excellent videos.
This definitely helps :) Thank You Preston. Hello from Oregon BTW
My first impression is that Preston needs to find Doc Brown so he can take the time machine back to the 1920’s.
I was taught to introduce people this way by my parents and charm school. It has come in handy over the years.
Odd you didn’t include break dancing but it was still a very interesting and thoughtful video.
Your outfit is incredible!
I am just a boy from brazil, 15 years old, but I really like this content, will be useful.
Is there a video of how to be introduced and simple conversation starters ? If not, one would be appreciated!
Excellent
Preston is a really articulate speaker :D and nice tie, it really brings out the green in your eyes
Any tips on entering a room at a networking event and making connections when you don't know anyone there?
Great video old sport😀!
Thank you for your educational videos. Just a small remark, there is a difference between professional and social settings. In any social setting, a gentleman should be introduced to a lady out of respect. I am not considering royal protocol when referring to the social setting.
Exactly what I needed☺️ Thank you Gentleman's Gazette

Your suit needs to be tailored.
Matty, you may be well-served by the other videos on etiquette on this channel
thank you Preston. this a lot of information to retain. i forget everything because i am the oldest person i know.
Hi Preston yr super!!! Thank you!!! Keep up the good work
Thanks guys
Could somebody please tell me where I can find the intro and outro music? I've been a fan of GG for a while and I often get it's tuck in my head
How do you get that classic hair style products and ✂ cut, that classic 20's 50's well timeless style. I guess a video is due on the subject.
Well done!
I love Gentlemen’s Gazette. I always wonder, why do you wear your glasses in the way that your eyes are almost hidden behind the upper part of the frame of your glasses? Is that on purpose? Wouldn’t it be nicer to have them more in the middle of the glasses?

Can you make a video about what to wear for hunting
Does someone know the brand and the model of his glasses? Thank you very much in advance, my dears.
Amazing channel
Great video, liked.
this seems like the classic example of overthinking
cool
: D my friend and I worked out another sneaky intro when one of us (say me!) forgets a name: we signal the other and they extend their hand, introducing them self, (grammar?!) then the forgotten name dude tells my friend their name and I take note!
If i want to wear a stylish hat, can a cheap fedora work or is it to unstylish?
Great video eventhough most is common sense.
Hello , i have been following a lot of your videos, is it possible to do a video about men's fashion in regards with men having bold spots :)
Hey you wanna get us a table at Dorsia? I'll meet you guys there I just need to return some video tapes
When I was a boy, 'How do you do?' was the most polite greeting. Is it as obsolete as I am?
The hand shake is getting shaky. More and more people don't like to shake do to fear of illness. It is always slightly uncomfortable when you hold out your hand to be left holding it out.
"Howdy! How y'all doin'?" works well for me.
Title of video could be: “how to interact with humans if you’re from another planet”
Good Information. I'm not sure that jacket fits you very well (size wise.) Looks a little on the large size. Maybe because it's cotton. (Sorry, if it's impolite to point this out, before I introduce myself.)
That's pretty much how I do it anyways
You could be the new voice of Siri
nice job preston, but that jacket is too big- get in the weight room dude. cuff links are exceptional though.
He’s extremely handsome
I swear hes one of the lizard people
nice video, you need to work on that collar gap though.
So, 'lay some skin blud' was a bad introduction choice when I was at a party with my wife some time back: she's a doctor and I was engaging with the Professor of Surgery.....;-)
You look a little bit like Superman of Supergirl TV
Ooooo! Algebra 8:12
I was ignored by everyone in the staff room when I first started teaching. M.
Man your jacket is at least 2 specs larger than your size 😉
AYOO
Wow that is a great outfit
I see some people enjoy this type of videos, but I honestly do not. I subscribed for sartorial things and discussion revolving around that topic. Nice tie tho.
Dislike for you not for the topic!
raphael's suits are so much nicer than this guy's. Love the new guy's content, but you can even see how the peak lapels of raphael's suits are usually of a more vintage, lower position. I just think raphael looks more comfortable with his style
