I think it's nice.

What about when it comes to paying? Would you feel offended if a man insisted on paying for everything?

Smithy 15-01-2014 02:42 PM

no, again, it's just being polite :laugh:

I wouldn't feel offended but I wouldn't let him do it either (well, i would now with Gav cos we're married so it's different) but if I was just on a date with someone

Loukas 15-01-2014 02:45 PM

I'm a man, i open doors for both sexes and im not a chav. It's just good manners. I can't stand it when someone doesn't say thank you when i do it either

What a silly question, I don't think about somebody's gender when I hold a door open for them.

..not so much offended as I just wouldn't feel comfortable if I was just dating someone ..and I do still like to pay for stuff I buy for my OH with my own money....

I worded it wrong.. Read on a bit

Crimson Dynamo 15-01-2014 04:35 PM

er no one thinks that to open a door for a woman is chauvinistic

doing so and then saying "nice arse luv" is however (even if her arse is nice!)

I would be over the ****ing moon. I would allow anyone to pay for anything for me tbh. I'm a right scrooge (and skint :laugh: )

Crimson Dynamo 15-01-2014 04:45 PM

I will always stand when being introduced to a lady (if seated) but this trend seems to be on the decline?

Jake. 15-01-2014 05:22 PM

I'd do it for anyone really, regardless of their gender

King Gizzard 15-01-2014 05:31 PM

I'd do it for a guy too, it's just being nice lol

Jake. 15-01-2014 05:32 PM

I wouldn't for Greg though, he's a dick

King Gizzard 15-01-2014 05:33 PM

Life's too short to be to be treading on egg shells in fear of offending someone

You're always bound to offend someone whatever you do or say

smudgie 15-01-2014 05:34 PM

No.

Good manners are good for both sexes.
Most people give you a smile or a nod in appreciation as well.

King Gizzard 15-01-2014 05:36 PM

Shutup Jacob you mug m8

smeagol 15-01-2014 06:15 PM

you got to be careful when being a gent. a family member last week was on a bus and a o woman came on and had to stand so he said to this guy sitting are you going to get up and let this woman sit. and he said f off im not a guy im female lol

Redway 15-01-2014 06:31 PM

Always thought of it as a basic act of kindness: gender doesn't cross my mind when I do it.

Well that poll seems pretty conclusive. I like men being chivalrous, doesn't make me feel like a chattel or belittled in any way. In fact if a man wasn't chivalrous on a date there wouldn't be a second date.
