Chivalry...NOT DEAD

I went to pick up some Chinese earlier, and as I approached the door, a man in his 60s or so was leaving. He stopped and held the door for me, with a smile. It really is the little things in life, I felt important lol. THEN, as I was about to enter the second door to go in, another guy was already coming out, in his 30s perhaps, and he stopped shot, and stepped backwards to hold THAT door for me...he was smiling a big smile,, and I must say quite attractive. I thanked him as well, and felt like I was some celebrity! Two doors in a row! Haha. Its sad in a way because thats the most interaction Ive had with men since the pandemic, but I was grateful all the same. Chivalry is here, ladies. 🌹😌😊🌺(and thank you gentleman for making my night!)

I recall a time i was 21 at college. 2 sets of double doors to get to the cafeteria. I was actually leaving and as i stepped outside i heard yelling from behind. This girl, looked like a dyke, was screaming that i slammed the door on her. I did notice her as i was leaving but didnt know she was going my way, she was like 20 feet back. Anyway she goes on a rant like men are "suppose" to open the door for ladies. I said to her "youre absolutely right. And im glad i didnt since you dont know how to act like one" and i quickly scuffled away before she could berate me some more lol

@Coralmist if i recall correctly chivalry was originally meant to be courteous to all. There is a lot of culture that goes into it..ill have to research it some day. Down here in the south, opening doors for people or letting someone in your lane is a pretty common practice. Sometimes the guys race to do something for a lady, especially the attractive ones haha

@JestAJester I spent time down south and I do have to agree those are some of the most polite people I ever experienced.
