OTOH
There is a flyer for a movie - From what I have seen, mostly Blacks in it (not that there is anything wrong with that) that had a ‘skit’ where this guy pulls up in a flashy sports car, blows his horn (he LOOKS rich etc), she. who is quite a looker, comes out and makes a statement along the lines “Any guy that dates me will come to the door etc..”, He says “OK”, slams the car in gear and takes off.....

But... but... Marlo Thomas was so sweet & lovable in “That Girl”.

Oh...that was forty four years ago, in 1968. Oopsie.

I open doors for LADIES....and if older,anyone. Say good morning to strangers,(if in the right neighborhood), will ask anyone who can’t reach something in the supermarket if they need help, and say “yes ma’am” and “yes sir” to most who are waiting on me. It started when I was 10 or so, it’s a habit.

I do the same things (except for addressing strangers...just not a habit of mine). I may be dead wrong but I associate the "yes ma'am" and "yes sir" to be related to my Southern upbringing.

P.S. I'm finding it harder and harder to find people older than I to open doors for.

“Where is the Orkin man??”

Probably going (gone) out of business...he sees the an unencumbered EPA on the horizon...

There are certain ovens that are still in existence though.

I do it because I grew up in a military family. Now that I'm well on in middle age, if the other person is clearly quite a bit younger than I am, I might say "Son" or "Hon."

I hold doors for just about anyone, but women in particular. I have never been upbraided for this in my life. I am a woman-lover and a Southern Gentleman. I am a lover, a fighter, and a wild bull rider. I also help women or weaklings put their luggage in the overhead bin. Plus, I complement women, including liberal women, in a tasteful way and never received any gas for this. Gentlemen, you have to have some finesse.

“I have never been upbraided for this in my life.”

Me either. It’s nice to be nice. But I’m changing my strategy, doesn’t mean anyone else has to.

100% completely agree with you. The RATS win by doing that. It’s long past time that “our” side wakes up and realizes the game has radically changed (and not for the better).

You either adapt to win or remain static and lose.

Chivalry isn't dead at all. I have the door held open all the time for me and love it. But then again, I live in a city that is highly populated with active duty and retired military. Where men are still men.

Most men here probably don't even consider or take notice of women being rude in response to their gentlemanship. Or they quickly shake it off knowing that more are appreciative than not. I guess once you've faced the North Vietnamese or the Taliban in battle, a feminist's rudeness or lack of respect is almost pale in comparison.;)

Why exactly would any red-blooded man look at THAT??

Yep, me too. My parents raised me to say “Sir” to men I was interacting with, and “Ma’am” to females.

LOL...when my dad was dressing me down for something, and he asked “Do you understand?”, if I answered “Yes”, he would raise his voice slightly, and in a more severe voice, say “Yes...WHAT?”

To which I would always reply “Yes Sir”.

Interestingly, many women hate being referred to as “Ma’am”, but I can’t change.

In wondering disbelief, I suppose.

Feminists hate chivalry and gentlemanly behavior. they probably hate that when I walk with my wife, I walk on the curb side.
