Royal Protocol ....
38 Answers
& curtseying. I know this has been happening for years & years & it's all steeped in history, but it really niggles me in these modern times. Could you see yourself having so much deference? Why should someone bow/curtsey to another human being? http://

The Queen curtsied to the Queen of Denmark when England visited Denmark as part of Royal protocol for Royals.
Nancy Reagan loudly declared she would not curtsye to the Queen of England,as she was wife of the President of the ......etc.etc.

if you dont want a shock, dont do it - but of course it is a free country
so that if you doan wanna curtsye to the queen dont go there.
but if you are in the queue, there 's a whole bit you have to cope with - she in tiara, red carpet, cucumber sarndwiches
But in the long term I agree protocol must change - one of the first things George V did was scrap levees.
and the first thing Edw VII did was to give orders that John Browns room was to be emptied and the furniture burnt.
