Chivalry is defined to be as distinguished gentlemen as they have an honorable and polite way of behaving especially toward women. Nowadays it is hard to find gentlemen. The question is it because parents aren´t teaching their male children how to treat women (as it before was accustomed), or is it because women don´t behave in a way that show men that they deserve to be respected?
I remember years ago men, regardless if they liked you or even knew you, they would open all doors for you. When going in and out of stores, when getting into the car, helping you carry heavy things, pay for everything....just out of respect because they were women men would do this. I´m not saying women should rely on men for everything, because I do believe women should also be independent, but men should at least have the courtesy to offer.
What will become of the future generations? I can´t imagine what type of men my daughters will go out with. Before guys would treat ladies to dinner & a movie and then try to get something out of her. Nowadays they just think taking her out for coffee or just to dinner will do the trick.
Call me old fashioned but if a guy goes out with me has to open & close every door for me & pay for everything especially on the first date if he wants to go out with me ever again.
