Of course you can, people do it all the time, on the basis of seniority of age, official position, social standing and what not.

Wouldn't that be the case where a position commands respect rather than a case of demand for respect? Big smile

The position can command respect only when the person in that position shows quality to receive respect. When the person expects respect because of the position then obviously s/he is demanding respect ain't it?? Tongue

Yeah, but I don't think people should demand respect. If they have to ask for it esp cause of position, then clearly something is wrong. Confused

I'm not talking about whether they should or shouldn't. You asked if people can ask for respect, and I said yes they can and they do. Tongue

Fine! *catty looks, and sharpening my claws* LOL I am asking now... should people ask for respect?

Hi fellow nut-cases,

Why is the place so dead? Confused LOL

Tell me.... can you demand respect? Is it really respect if you got to ask for it? Can somebody's mistake (out of naivity/stupidity) be considered disrespect? even though the person meant no such thing? Confused

*Edit* Is it right to demand respect? Big smile

Okay, I need to get off IF now. Ouch

Later,
Persy

Nice Posty :)

Yes once things go beyond limit it is necessary to stand up for one's respect. But demanding it nah... no pointing in forcing anything.. trust me.. respect cannot be bought or forced.. come auto. So no need to demand it, don't want artificial respect.. disrespectful behaviour is kinna of ting ting to improve on negative points.

Place is dead as Dewey said People found some life afterall . Enjoying wknd???

Respect is something earned and can't be demanded. Although there is time when one must take a stand. One must show all merits why they should be respected.

No one is that naive when they are being disrespectful to someone. Deep down inside they know what they are doing. Hypothetically even if they made a honest mistake, than once realized it, admit and ask for sincerely apology and mean it. Do not repeat same mistake twice.

Have seen at times people apologize for the heck without any sincerity calling themselves being more mature.

No one should take anything for granted in any relationship IMHO. Be it Love or respect
