suggests new research showing that men who hold doors for women also tend to hold sexist views about them. I don't remember them interviewing me.

An earmark of totalitarianism: setting the tone, terms, rules, boundaries and language of the debate.

Oh how silly. It's simply good manners. I LOVE it when anyone holds the door open for me. And I frequently hold doors open for others, regardless of sex.

Absolutely. Have you noticed the replacement of "Father" and "Mother" with the generic "parent" (or "parent/guardian") in many forms of print, and A/V media? And you happily go along with it. You complain about childrens' programming on the TV being an attempt to brainwash your sons and daughters, and rightly so. But they aren't the only targets; the programmers are after your brain, too...

Well, my parent...er, mother, has been a homemaker since she married my other parent...er, my dad. She's the woman I admire most in the world. It takes far more competence and brains to stay home and raise good human beings than to leave the kids in daycare while Mommy persues her career. I'm thankful my mother stayed home to raise her children.
Homemakers/stay at home moms (God bless you), have been getting a bad rap for years and years and I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the left giving men a bad rap, too.

They must have abortions, and the result is millions of bastard children...silly me - it was NOT an intentional parody - just my own bad proofreading.
I should have said that their hatred of the natural order combined with sicko lust for other women, combined with the casual meaningless sex with irresponsible men, lead to millions of abortions AND millions of bastard children.

"And you happily go along with it." Actually, no. Most of Cartoon Network is verboten in our house. Also -- regrettably -- Disney Channel, since it's mostly just new-age PC crap. We pulled the plug on that when I found myself watching it and saying over and over, "Walt must be spinning in his grave at the stuff being done in his name by Eisner and company." Looney Toons and Tom and Jerry are still okay, and Animal Planet is pretty harmless.
The problem is when our children go to friends' houses, where the parental (there's that word again!) controls are more lax, or nonexistent.

I'm a feminist and I would NEVER infer all that about a person opening a door for me. Stereotyping and blind assumptions about people are wrong no matter who is doing it. I want to be given the benefit of the doubt, so I give it to others. I assume everyone is capable, fair and open minded until proven otherwise.
Plus, I open doors for people all the time. It's simply curteous and no big deal.
