Well I understand that a lot of women don't want to be treated like they are handicapped.
But that's not why you do it, women don't want to be treated like they are special but what's wrong with thinking that they are? It's not treating women as inferiors, but rather as people who are worthy of respect. What's wrong with encouraging men to be polite to women? Most men are not very polite so why be offended that someone actually has some damn manners? It's such a rarity these days. Last edited by boo boo; 07-09-2010 at 04:26 PM. |

Well if they do then they are conceited and arrogant. I hold the door open for either genre, give up my seat on the bus for those who need it more and have carried shopping home for an elderly neighbour a few times. As you say it's good manners. BTW if I don't get a thankyou for holding a door open etc I usually say 'Yeah your welcome' just loud enough for them to hear it. I abhor bad manners.

It is also nice if people offer to pick up the bill...but nicer when you can then split it or, like you say, take turns paying. No one likes to feel beholden to someone for TOO long, I think. Do they?
