Courtesy means politeness and consideration of another's feelings; it is an essential component of chivalry and of all standards of decent behavior.
A key element of conservatism is concern for the loss of courtesy in modern society, and the corrosive effect this has upon the structures of society as a whole. Recognizing that the traditions and mores of courtesy have value and are worth preserving is, by definition, conservative; thus, courtesy is an inherently conservative value.
