Girls make it hard to be a gentlemen these days

[Francisco d'Anconia]

The car doors concept is for helping chicks in high heels out of the car without her falling on her face.

Wouldn't it be easier to date women who are capable of walking upright on their own?

Always good to get in some kino. You stretch out your hand, not your bent forearm. In the right context, good move. But not an everyday standard

I'll stick with keeping my hand up her skirt while driving.

I would expect this fvcking garbage from LMS or 'Cisco. Some guys in thier forties and older think they're owed something because they've been around a few extra decades. Problem is it only gets them closer to Geritol iv's and bedpans.....

And we all know about your expectations...

Wow lotsa inputs on this!

Well I was raised in Europe (France) and we're not exactly perfect gentlemen but we do have certain values we hold up to and acts of politeness.

I used to maintain those values until I just kept getting burned from my past relationships with girls raised in California especially. They wore me down to the point I just want to treat girls with little consideration. It's unfortunate because I feel a part of me has been suppressed.

I actually open doors for women...the refrigerator door so that they can make me a sandwich!!

Truthfully, I open non car doors for men and women out of courtesy.

Relating to car doors, since I have a wireless car door opener now I just press a button!

What Bonez said is true ... it is a supplicating traditional taught custom.. but since women are no longer "traditional" then the custom no longer applies!

I used to open car doors and be more courteous ect. but after doing that for a while and getting nothing but sh*t. I just can't see myself genuinly doing it for chicks unless they're special and have earned it.

Sad but true..


Anybody else?

and I'm not talking about going the extra miles, just doing things as a gentlemen would do.

Granted a lot of women make it difficult for us to want to show respect in that way to a woman.

But some don't.

I dated a woman who would reach over and unlock my car door for me after I held the car door open for her. Those are usually some good women that make it worth while.

But I still do it anyway. I want to walk women to ther cars, even if it doesn't get me anything, because I know that a woman is more protected. I'd offer to do this with platonic female friends.

Sometimes a girlfriend or wife (or husband) doesn't really "deserve" something, but you do something nice for them because you love them or respect them.

Being gentlemanly has nothing to do with getting her approval or attention. It's about having principles which you adhere to no matter what the situation.

I didn't know there were reasons to have principles for absolutely no reason.

But of course you wouldn't . . .

What do these girls do to you? Do they ignore you or are they rude?

I always appreciate if someone--male or female--holds a door open for me, helps me pick up something I dropped, etc. I think those are decent human things to do, and I try to do those in turn.

You could stop being kind, if people give you a negative reaction. But your actions reflect your character; what do you have to lose by being polite? Just my take, anyway.

I actually feel off my chair laughing like a mad man after I saw that youtube video link in your post!
