If guys don't get up/hold doors etc, maybe they've been on the unlucky end of some feminazi who yelled at them for doing it. As far as the bus is concerned, I don't expect guys to stand up for me - they've had a long hard day, too.  For the women who are like "but my shooooeess hurt!" well, that's your own dumb fault. |
my son (when I have one) will be taught to be a gentleman...he will open doors, give up his seat, and do whatever else he can to make a lady in his presence comfortable...my boyfriend opens doors, walks on the street side of the sidewalk, guides me through a crowd with his hand at the small of my back, and is just an all around gentleman...I have no problem with gender roles in my relationship...if these basics were still taught to young boys we probably wouldn't have so many men who will throw around the bitch, ho,
c-word so often...do I expect this level of respect from a man, hell yes...but maybe its because I'm a GRITS...oh I quoted you because I expect there to be at least one gentlman on a bus (when I rode buses) I was never surprized though if there wasn't...
oh yeah, if there was a senior citizen on the bus standing and no men gave up their seat, I would...
