Guys...Do You Open the Door for a Girl?

My daughter started dating this guy and after the third date she asked him why he didn't open the car door for her. He responded, "Can't you do it?" She said, "Of course I can, but it would be nice if you did." My husband always opens the door for me, runs and opens doors for other people, holds the elevator door open for people, helps them with their groceries, returns shopping carts, and other simple but kindly gestures (FYI... my daughters and I also do these things). Is it a lost thing? Maybe I'm old fashioned, but to me it's just the right thing to do.

i open the door for the needy.. blind, crippled, those who have other mobility issues, those who are working class who are pedestrians who are carrying loads... children who aren't strong enough to open the door themselves... and then some, those who really need a helping hand.

that's who.

everyone else can suck it!
