I once opened the door for a guy in a wheelchair. He gave me a major attitude, insisting he would open it himself....

I usually ask, as in, "would you like me to get that door?" They'll either say thanks, or "that's okay, I've got it".

Several years ago, I worked with a woman who said she wasn't sure how to react when someone held a door for her. I said I prefer to be pleasantly surprised - that I consider it an act of courtesy, not an act of oppression.
