Chapter 2 - Dudes With Dudes Etiquette - The equal footing rule

Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: both urinating, both waiting in line, both washing hands, etc. For all other situations, an almost un-noticeable nod is all the conversation you need.

Every man has encountered the rule breaker, or maybe has been the rule breaker in the past. That awkward guy who won`t stop talking while you are obviously preoccupied.Conversations should be started and stopped once equal footing has been established or lost, and can be continued once equal footing has been re-established.
This will help eliminate those awkward moments for the betterment of humanity.
