or manners which violates the established rules of
civility, custom, or etiquette; indecorousness.
[1913 Webster]
2. An indecorous or unbecoming action. --Young.
Syn: Indecorum is sometimes synonymous with indecency; but
indecency, more frequently than indecorum, is applied to

Indecency is the stronger word; indecorum refers to any
transgression of etiquette or civility, especially in
public.
