How do women feel about men opening doors for them? Is it patronizing or gentlemanly?

Patronizing
They have a pair of hands they can do it themselves

It would be improper to expect them to come into the kitchen through the window.

It's good manners - regardless of whether male or female.
when related to specifically men though as the OP asks:- it's the sign of a gentleman - and someone with good manners. (it could also be a sign that the guy just fancies the pants off the female !!). |

Personally I would hold the door open for anyone who happened to be behind me as I entered through a doorway.
All I ask is the person in front of me holds the door for me to follow rather than just ignore me. I wouldn't go out of my way to open a door just because it's a female, I'm all for equal rights.

I also hold a door open for the person behind me, most of the time it appears to be taken for granted but I have had many thank you's as well.
However earlier in the year,an elderly woman was behind me and I held the door open and got 'damn young people, they think all old people cannot do things for themselves'. It was a bit embarrassing but I just smiled and left her to it though. |
