Women back then, generally speaking, were ladies and deserved chivalrous men. Women today, generally speaking, are whores and deserve contempt. Who is going to waste chivalry on a whore? Not me.
Interesting that you broadened the concept out to include our cultural shift to an overall lack of basic good manners.
No question this absolutely is the handiwork of nefarious leftist forces bent on tearing us apart to gain the upper hand.
When we fled California in 2015 and relocated to a Red State (were in East Tennessee now), I couldnt help but be struck by the difference in manners. The most striking of all is among the kids. With the SoCal adolescents, every second word is the eff word. I hated sitting near them in restaurants. I have yet to hear the eff word in public in the two years weve been in Tennessee.
And parents here control their children in publichuge difference. Theyre not running loose all over stores and restaurants screaming like banshees.
So nice to live in a culture that places a value on manners.

LOL!! I say the SAME thing....THANK YOU...Chivalry is Not Dead...and they always smile back at me!!! But when someone slams the door in my face I do say thanks...like I MEAN it!!!

That is the world that I grew up in, as well.
Thank you, sir, for keeping the torch burning.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHA!!!!!

Your hatred of women always draws you to threads like this, doesn’t it?
I went to the Philippines 🇵🇭 😁😂🙃👍
Totally agree! The Long March Through the Institutions -- especially universities -- has been the method of spreading cultural mayhem and destruction of the historic order of things.
We have allowed ourselves to lower the standards for so many things the last 50 years with the advent of bad movies, comics, all manner of society degradation, and now romantic Chivalry is Passe. What would Sir Walter Raleigh think if he were here today????????????????
Sad. Most women are NOT feminists, yet we have lost that wonderful affection of men. We 2 pay the price.
Don’t hate em. Just dont worship or chase em like you blue pillers or white knights.
See post 7, and contribute your tagline...
Hopefully, those reading our posts will accept these facts and stop spouting crap, that is specious untruths.
We'll never combat this mess, unless everyone finally knows and accepts the facts!
I’ve been screamed at for holding a door.
My response both times was, “Oh, sorry, I mistook you for a lady...”
LOL that’s funny..........what steams me is I’m coming out of a door and I hold it open and there happens to be a man fixing to come in. Now most of the time they thank me but the few times they don’t I say YOU’RE WELCOME!! My hubby tells me I’m gonna open my mouth to the wrong person one day..........heehee
You are taking the Victorian idealization of it, instead, as the ideal; which it is.
The original "code of chivalry" included such things as: it's okay to rape a peasant female ( married, single, child, teen, whatever ) but NOT a high born "LADY".
The adoration/non-physical "romantic love" was for the queen, princess, woman of the court, which began during Eleanor of Aquitaine's run as Queen of France.
Why, thank you, and bless your heart!
