Do you believe in 'ladies first'? At school I mostly let girls go first (through doorways, in queues etc), when I remember. How about you guys?

I am a girl, and no, I don't.

Yes, yes I do.

Yea its a habit now

Yes, common curtisy.

I do simply because I grew up chivalry as the only way to treat women. I then learned that SOME women are evil and shouldn't be treated with respect if they themselves are disrespectful.

Yes, assuming they're not being a *****.

I second that.

Hell no, gender equality.

Yes, I am a chauvinistic pig.

As a girl, I don't like it when people do it for me! Why should I be treated differently because I'm a woman? I'm a person like everyone else, so just treat me that way, like a person. Gender equality!

Yes... and no. I hold the door for my school open for 5-10 minutes, due to, as others have said, me feeling like I'm being rude and a jerk if I don't.

Yup, I go so far as putting my coat over puddles for women. So many ruined coats.

This bothers me. It's a door not a metaphor for women being inferior, or an insinuation women are weaker, although the average women is physically weaker than the average male. It's a damn door.

In fact I once had a *****, and I say ***** not women because to quote a friend "bitches rage, women just go through", that I was holding the door open for her when she was a foot or two behind me. SO I closed the door and held it shut so she couldn't get in. I laughed at her. She left, I went about my business.

ALso if you dont like it, just dont rage about it, or hell get there first and open the door yourself.

EDIT: Now I dont go so far as to rush ahead and hold it open, and I dont only hold the door for women. And Im not about to ruin my bitchen coat because you cant walk around a puddle.

Yeah, this.

I dont think i can word it better :tongue.gif:

I am generally polite in public, so whoever goes through the door first doesn't matter.

You misinterpreted what she was saying. Like, a lot.
