I don't think so. I've been opening doors for women for almost 50 years, and haven't heard a complaint yet.
Don't always get a thank you either, and for those women who take it as their inherent right I'm always tempted to let the door hit them in the butt. But I don't.
It’s in Australia too - it is really western culture going down the toilet - Worst thing of all is the shame and second guessing of our cultural heritage - we did what we did - some things were maybe not right by today’s standards but I refuse to apologize for my history. Who says today’s standards are goo anyway in 100 years they will be saying we murdered loving pedophiles!!!
Child beauty pageants are disgusting, nothing but fuel for pedos.
And those built up with self esteem little darlings are pathetically devoid of any.
“When did we move all the way from pitying victims and showing them a little kindness to treating victimhood as some sort of exalted status?”
Easy. The 1970’s. It was a 180 degree change that came almost over night. No on cared about it or even seemed to know what I was talking about when I pointed it out.
Number (whatever we’re up to + 1): Intellectual laziness. Someone on TV could say: “It’s wrong to be judgmental” or “I hate intolerant people” and the others on the show would applaud rather than point out the contradiction.
Excellent list compiled by John Hawkins.
Ignorant people believing they’re qualified to assume worst case scenarios and are later disappointed to learn the truth.
1. Males with womanish looking long hair. They look like some of the women the East Germans once sent to the Olympics.
2. The tough guy uniform: black tee shirt, Levis, burr hair cut with a week's beard growth. What's he dressing up for? A cruise of the leather bars?
3. Tattoos. The equivalent of graffiti on a building but harder to remove and more expensive.
Re #9 Did you ever watch these idiots walking who have their pants almost hanging down to their knees? You would think they have a load in them
Nice rant.

He said ANNOYING.
I wholeheartedly agree with many of these. Point 12 regarding the Church is a reflection of the fact that the church is really the people that make it up, not the buildings, not the clergy. When people stop teaching their children about their faith, or neglect to sustain it themselves, that’s what happens.
The interesting part about 12 and 1 are that if folks remembered Psalm 119:165 they could get past their offense. “Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them”(KJV)
Hip-Hop should have been on that list. I find it very annoying, especially played at high volume from a car with 72” subwoofers and the windows rolled down. My mirrors vibrate so I can’t see behind me.
At one time I worked in a department run by a woman and heavily weighted by gender feminists. The type that would complain if you opened the door for them, and if you didn't as well.
One day a bunch of them were sitting around complaining because they all were single or divorced, and they couldn't find a man with whom they were compatible (which of course, they needed "like a fish needs a bicycle"). As I was walking by, the loudest one wailed "where have all the good men gone?"
I smiled at them and said "why, they're married to the good women, Amy". It actually shut them up, for the first time I could remember...
