“but if a white male with a job opens a door for a woman in the US....they are all over him like a cheap suit!!!!”
That happened to me several years ago. I was raised to be a gentleman (hell, when we weere youngsters we were taught to stand whenever a woman walked into the room; always let the woman take her seat before you take yours, etc.). Well, anyway, several years ago I held the door open for a woman who was behind me, to let her enter the building while I held the door, and she tore into me like I had just committed the gravest of sins (and I guess I had, to a feminist’s twisted logic); she yelled and berated me and caused a scene. Now the only women I will hold a door open for are my wife, my mother, my sister, and a woman pushing a baby stroller or carrying a baby in her arms. All others can use their own initiative to open the door.
I would really like to slap this women. It’s bitches like her who have RUINED male/female common courtesy. Had I witnessed what she did to you that would have been the last time she lipped off to a male for being nice. If she’d been raised right the proper thing to do would have been to smile and say thank you and sail right through.
I’m sorry that that bitch has made you lessen your standards though.
