Abstract

The article reports on the author's experience attending a gentlemen's finishing school. The school, held at Lickleyhead Castle in Scotland, is run by Penny Edge and Diana Mather, two veterans of women's finishing schools who decided British men needed to live up to the standards set by their female counterparts. The students practice etiquette, carving, country dancing, wine appreciation and shooting, but the author concluded that it is difficult to learn how to be a gentleman from ladies.
