Do gentlemen exist?

Just musing Fabbers.

This is in no way a thread to upset anyone, especially the men.

These days I’m wondering why men aren’t so much gentlemen these days? For example I arrive at a shop door the same time as a man, he goes through the door and let’s the door close in my face! Yes it is bad manners as I’m just the opposite, I would never be bad mannered.

Are there no gentlemen because us ladies have kicked off about women’s rights/feminism etc? Do I as a woman expect too much from men?

My personal choice is that I like a man to be a gentleman i.e. courteous, respectful, well mannered.

Being a gentleman isn't just about treating ladies a certain way. Not saying I'm a shining example but I'll hold the door open for anyone behind me regardless of gender. It's just polite.

I seem to find no shortage of gentleman around, the other day a man opened the door for me and one let me out of the shop before him. Yes there are also the ignorant ones around but not as many as you’d think x

Could the only reason the door closed on you was because you expected him leave it open for you. You should expect tge unexpected that way if nice gestures are made your thank you will be more sincere.

I did expect him to leave the door open for me as I was brought up to have manners. I glared at him as I was behind him in the queue, his body language looked uncomfortable so he knew what he had done. I thought ‘twunt’!

I like to think I'm a gentleman. Hold the door open if someone is following behind and give way when out shopping. Also put my hand up to say thanks if someone let's me pass when driving. I think there are less manners about these days. Maybe it's just a generation thing. Either that or people are just more focused going about their busy lives to notice others.

I will hold a door for anyone, always have done. However if I see a lady in difficulty I may go out of my way to offer assistance. On the odd occasion that has caused offence I withdraw with a comment along the lines of 'pardon the intrusion, enjoy your problem'..

Basic manners and courtesy are the basics for behaviour from anyone, gentleman know how to behave as gentleman but ladies should also have the same traits, a thank you cost nothing and labels shouldn’t need to be attached.

If you act in a certain way others should respond in kind.

my own little sanctuary

A gentleman doesn’t conduct himself through some view of women being inferior or to lift himself above others. He does it because it’s the right thing to do, it extends beyond just women. A gentleman will do simple yet caring things subconsciously wether it be holding a ladies coat so it’s easier to put on down to kneeling down to speak to a child so that you are showing you are listening to what they say. Feminism has nothing to do with it, the problem lies with role models. My grandfather was the true definition of a gentleman and he had every ounce of class, good manners and intelligence to make me aspire to be just that growing up. If more people had such good figures throughout the key stages of development you wouldn’t have a reason to post this

I am always kind, courteous and well mannered. I had 2 amazing parents that instilled that in me.

I know some women think a man holding a door open for them is somehow sexist, but I think that’s just the way the world is these days. It won’t stop me doing it, or offering my assistance to anyone I’m passing that might need it. It’s just good bloody manners.

It could be argued that there are less gentleman around now because there are less ladies. Or there are less ladies around because there are less gentlemen. And so the spiral descends.

I believe in being a gentleman. I learnt from my grandad who was in the army, always stood when a lady entered the room, took his hat off when entering a room, opened car doors for a lady, always ladies first; was polite and well spoken.

I might be a keen sexual pervert but manners and being a gentleman are still important to me.

But what good is a world full of gentlemen without real ladies?

Yesterday I was at a bus stop and a woman was there before me. So when the bus arrived i waited for her to get on first. She didn't. I extended my arm as if to invite her on and she still didn't budge. So i got on first. I wasn't happy about it but the fucking thing would have driven off if that game had gone on any longer.

This is in no way a thread to upset anyone, especially the men.

These days I’m wondering why men aren’t so much gentlemen these days? For example I arrive at a shop door the same time as a man, he goes through the door and let’s the door close in my face! Yes it is bad manners as I’m just the opposite, I would never be bad mannered.

Are there no gentlemen because us ladies have kicked off about women’s rights/feminism etc? Do I as a woman expect too much from men?

My personal choice is that I like a man to be a gentleman i.e. courteous, respectful, well mannered.

Discuss. I'm always a gentleman I offer my seat to attractive women, I open the door for sexy women and I always give up my last rolo

Would you do the same for a less attractive woman? "

Personally yes. It's not about the woman, it's about the situation she finds herself in, hence giving your seat up for a little old lady is just the right thing to do, and not exclusive to those who consider themselves gentlemen. It certainly isn't about seeing women as inferior. It's more about respect for women. I might just as readily offer assistance to a man as well, but I am more aware around women. It's just how I'm hard-wired..If it offends you...jog on!

"I like to think I'm a gentleman. Hold the door open if someone is following behind and give way when out shopping. Also put my hand up to say thanks if someone let's me pass when driving. I think there are less manners about these days. Maybe it's just a generation thing. Either that or people are just more focused going about their busy lives to notice others.

"

Probably for another thread but am i the only person left in the country that dims there lights to let another car coming towards you pass on narrow roads at night?

Gentlemanly or just being cosiderate to others

I've been lucky and mainly meet gentlemen. I like the doors being opened, my bags carried etc.

I've instilled gentleman values in my son, he opens doors for woman and I've known him to rush ahead and open the car door for me if I'm a passenger rather than driving.

The most attractive thing I’ve seen recently was a city-type guy scramble past four women for the last seat on the Tube. So hot.

As far as I'm concerned being a gentleman and having good manners is something you are and do regardless of the gender of any recipients and you should treat everyone with courtesy politeness and respect. I will open doors automatically and offer anyone my seat if they need it, although being honest I would be more likely to offer it to a lady.

I still open my car door for ladies seat a lady at a table and stand up when a lady comes back to the table. I have instilled the same manners into my son and his school reports say polite courteous and respectful so it must have worked. The sad thing is that from the number of ladies who are surprised by this I am forced to assume we are the exception rather than the rule nowadays. And in defence of the ladies I have to say I have never had my courtesy thrown back in my face.

I’m too stubborn (or stupid) to let a guy help me with my case on the underground. I need to let people help me more but I can’t. I even tore my ligament in my arm last year and still refused help. I need to learn it’s not a weakness.

I’m often seen dragging my big case down the stairs on the underground, on my way to work. In heels and uniform it’s not fun but I’ve taken help occasionally. I do find women offer to help more then men.

That’s not the Yorkshire way. We might have a reputation of being 2 turns tighter than a wheel nut, but gentlemen we are. At least we try to be.

Sadly, that's probably because those that might consider offering don't for fear of offending and in younger generations it's largely been bred out!

I think he was just rude full stop. I’d hold the door open whether you were a lady or a chap.

I’d say I was a gentleman who still believes in etiquette, and yet despite that, I have pictures of my penis on here, hardly gentlemanly behaviour what.

No ones going to be offended if they are obvious struggling with something and you offer to help.

I am 51 and the other day some teenager offered me his seat on the tube. Bloody hell, I thought, I'm not that old, but I appreciated the gesture.

That's fine, but you say you have taken help occasionally. I'm simply suggesting why fewer men offer than used to..

I think manners should be standard anyway, I was told it would get me a long way in life.

I do think society in general has lost alot of "manners" in terms of people feeling more liberated to just "do and say what I want".

I think society's attitude towards respect has changed and I remember a time where you would simply say "Good morning" to people and help you neighbour and your community in general.

Nowadays you don't speak to anyone, head in your phone, you rarely know your neighbours past two doors either side, and generally don't care about the community, so with all that being said...

I consider myself a gentleman living in a new world where manners and respect is fast becoming a thing of the past.

Don’t change a thing. It’s all about manners to me and it’s goes a long way. I do dislike the ‘gentleman’ word as a little old fashioned but I like people to be kind and polite. It’s costs nothing.

There’s nothing more attractive than an independent woman. However, just because a woman can it doesn’t mean she should have to. A woman can cook, clean and look after kids all day, doesn’t mean you leave it all to them to do solo. Compromise is key.

And as for just helping someone with the little things my approach is if I can I will. If I feel I can help someone without neither them or I risking injury or struggling then it makes sense to do so.

"Yes, there are still some of us gentlemen around

I still walk on the outside of the pavement

With my hand on my sword and my cloak ready to shield the lady from the mud thrown up by the carrage wheels

Do you throw said cloak over a puddle so she doesn’t get mud on her shoes? "

Better to test the said puddle with said sword before throwing said clock over. The size of some of the sinkholes these days would result in said lady being swallowed leaving said gentleman said ladyless!!!

There are still gents in this world, sadly though it does look like it's few and far between these days. The media portray guys to be these muscle-bound bad boys, who look after themselves first, second and third and no one else matters.

Treat how you want to be treated is how I go. Open doors, pull out chairs, flowers just because. So much more than that too.

Can’t argue with any of that. What price progress?

Went on a date with a woman, and all I remember was the blue glow of a device screen highlighting her features. She never actually asked me anything. Would put the phone down to have a drink or a few bites from the plate in front of her, but soon picked her phone up again. Took pictures of her plate, straight on insta, and showed me a selfie she’d taken in the restroom - I wondered what was taking so long.

Afterwards she said she was ok with me filming us fucking on my phone - I suppose what the good Lord takes with one hand, he gives back with the other.

Gentleman still exist but we do suffer a problem sometimes we offer help and get shot down for it

And other times women think we want something in return if we help

But as far as opening doors or helping with bags and so on that's not always gentlemenally it's just trying to help someone who needs help

I don't think it has anything to do with being gentlemanly per se, as it's simply a way of treating others that applies to both sexes. For me it's to do with treating people with a bit of decency and having some consideration and respect for your fellow human beings. Treating people how you'd like to be treated yourself. These are basic things that should just automatically get instilled in all of us by our parents when we're young.

Sadly it appears ever more common to see people who seem to live in their own little bubble, apparently with no concept of the people or much else going on around them. An 'I'm all right Jack, so fuck the rest of you' approach. It's very saddening to see.

'Treat everyone like a gentleman, not because they are, but because you are.'

As I grew up I learned how important it was to earn the respect of those around you . As a teenager , I realised that women would respond positively to a more gentlemanly man , and my behaviors reflected this . However , the girls all went for the bad boys , and I wasn’t getting any , so I soon saw the error of my ways . I started smoking , swearing , getting into trouble at school , bunking off , and the last thing on my mind was to be a gentleman . This was when I was 14 and although it worked and was never short of a girls company again , I always felt slightly uncomfortable being a bit of a bad boy , when inside I felt more gentlemanly .

Fast forward to today and not much has changed . Nice guys get nowhere , women don’t want a nice guy do they ? Where’s the fun in that ? Treat them mean , keep them keen and all that !

And as another poster said , there’s just as many we men who would be pissed off at a guy helping them out as women want to be more independent .

I’ve never seen the attraction in a bad boy. I only like guys that treat me the way I treat them and that’s with respect and total honesty. The ‘treat them mean, keep them keen’ makes me run in the opposite direction.

Contrary to popular belief. I’m actually a gentleman. My grandfather tought me about manners and respect for a lady. All those simple things like holding doors open etc. A lot of women I’ve met through here aren’t into that though. So I act like an asshole instead

I get that when you are a teenager, it’s the gobby one that stands out to the girls generally. Luckily most grow up.

I’ve met guys that have been ‘too nice’. I think that’s just an excuse for lack of chemistry and attraction for me. I love a nice guy but they have to have an edge. So a nice ‘kinky’ guy is what I like.

Unfortunately a lot of guys have taken to equality cancelling out chivalry, its not about that at all. I'd hold the door open for anyone that's going through just after me.

Exactly. That’s what I want. I’m happy to open a door for a guy as much as a woman. What annoys me is when they can’t even say thanks.

"As I grew up I learned how important it was to earn the respect of those around you . As a teenager , I realised that women would respond positively to a more gentlemanly man , and my behaviors reflected this . However , the girls all went for the bad boys , and I wasn’t getting any , so I soon saw the error of my ways . I started smoking , swearing , getting into trouble at school , bunking off , and the last thing on my mind was to be a gentleman . This was when I was 14 and although it worked and was never short of a girls company again , I always felt slightly uncomfortable being a bit of a bad boy , when inside I felt more gentlemanly .

Fast forward to today and not much has changed . Nice guys get nowhere , women don’t want a nice guy do they ? Where’s the fun in that ? Treat them mean , keep them keen and all that !

And as another poster said , there’s just as many we men who would be pissed off at a guy helping them out as women want to be more independent .

I’ve never seen the attraction in a bad boy. I only like guys that treat me the way I treat them and that’s with respect and total honesty. The ‘treat them mean, keep them keen’ makes me run in the opposite direction.

I have been dumped before for being the nice guy

How can I be to nice

I’ve met guys that have been ‘too nice’. I think that’s just an excuse for lack of chemistry and attraction for me. I love a nice guy but they have to have an edge. So a nice ‘kinky’ guy is what I like. "

And here I was thinking what happened and I need to be a nasty guy

Never change who you are, be true to yourself unless you think a change would make you a better person. Only do that for YOU. If someone doesn’t like the ‘nice’ you then they aren’t compatible.

Not sure this is a man woman thing.

Both men and women alike don’t say thank you when you hold the door for them. Both fail to indicate at road islands...ad infinitum.

More of people who have bad manners and a poor attitude to others.

The few that are so rude like this will never stop me from holding doors open and saying thanks if someone does it for me.

Keep your standards high and rise above them.(mr)

"Just musing Fabbers.

This is in no way a thread to upset anyone, especially the men.

These days I’m wondering why men aren’t so much gentlemen these days? For example I arrive at a shop door the same time as a man, he goes through the door and let’s the door close in my face! Yes it is bad manners as I’m just the opposite, I would never be bad mannered.

Are there no gentlemen because us ladies have kicked off about women’s rights/feminism etc? Do I as a woman expect too much from men?

My personal choice is that I like a man to be a gentleman i.e. courteous, respectful, well mannered.

Discuss. "

My man is the epitome of a perfect gentleman. Holds doors open for me and for others, including other men and children. Opens car doors for me to get in first etc. I think it’s lovely and it’s a practice that we personally don’t see much of these days. Maybe we’re going to all the wrong places!

I do think that the relentless media attention attached to such campaigns like ‘Me too’ amongst others, and rightly so, may have lead some men to become a tad sick of it all. This may well manifest itself in ugly ways that you describe. Either that or they’ve just had a shite up bringing and consequently have no manners or class!

Well if someone negatively stereotypes me I won’t go out of my way to help them, I wouldn’t bother investing time into a message for them either. Maybe treating each person as an individual would prompt the truly nice men to contact you. After all they’re the ones that’ll put the time in.

A proper gentleman, in my opinion, no offence guys, would NOT have his man furniture on display in his pics. He would wait until the female requested them.....I await the feedback on this

I do treat everyone as an individual I’ve just had none prove me wrong yet. I keep waiting in hope that a man comes along who’s actually taken the time to read my profile, has a nice profile for me to read, a polite message and some respectable pics but until that day comes I’ll have to stick with my opinion gained through my own experiences.

I think manners and courtesy are a dying social skill . Sadly lost between generations and basic attitudinal skills that aren’t being passed on . It’s got nothing to do with gender as I will offer courtesy and manners to both sexes when the scenario requires it .

Yes, there are quite a few if one gets the time to know them, but takes more than a few messages to usually find them.

Most of the time help is offered cos your taking far too fuckin long to do it yourself

I’m often seen dragging my big case down the stairs on the underground, on my way to work. In heels and uniform it’s not fun but I’ve taken help occasionally. I do find women offer to help more then men. "

Could the only reason the door closed on you was because you expected him leave it open for you. You should expect tge unexpected that way if nice gestures are made your thank you will be more sincere.

In regards to what he did, it was bad manners I hold the door for anyone

I did expect him to leave the door open for me as I was brought up to have manners. I glared at him as I was behind him in the queue, his body language looked uncomfortable so he knew what he had done. I thought ‘twunt’! "

Two wrongs do not make a right.
