I realize that guys are often trained to do it and women are not, but I hold doors for other people when I can, period, even if it's for a guy. It just seems like the nice thing to do if you got to the door first.

If I'm walking with a guy that I know was raised to hold door, like any male member of my family, I'll kind of wait to let them get it for me, but with everyone else, it's just who gets there first.

It's funny sometimes at work, when I'll get the office door for a group of us going in, that some guys cannot let you hold the door for them, and that, I think, is funny.

We should just be nice to each other generally. Sure, teach your male kids to be gentlemen to women, but mainly teach them to treat other PEOPLE well.

ETA: you know what kind of old fashioned thing that I really like to see men do? Hold coats for women to put on. Does anyone else know what I mean? Imagine your grandparents leaving a party to which they both wore coats.
