"You don't see many people opening doors for others. I see that as a little bit of kindness and it may just be what someone needs that day as it may have been a totally shite one. "
That’s because people don’t have manners and say “thank you”
The same principle when you let someone out at a junction on a busy road |

"Appears shagging at the Glasgow social has also occurred this weekend.
Is that a no no ?
Yes, it was supposed to be a pub night.....wasn't me neither!"
So no shagging in pubs in Glasgow then ?
Sounds like a tall order  |

Saying thank you when someone holds the door open for you. The amount of times I will hold a door open for someone following me into a shop, for example, and I don't get a thank you. It's basic manners. |

I do this regardless of age or gender. It's good manners.
Also I'll always give my seat for someone less able to stand for long periods.
I always feel very special if a man pulls a chair out for me at the table or if they help with my coat. I'm probably in the minority but it makes me feel very looked after

100q agree with this, when they don't say thanks to me i sarcastically say your welcome to them  |

It’s so passive-aggressive but hard to resist!  x |

"Good manners are so incredibly important, as is a bit of kindness."
Sadly too rare that we see good manners, let alone kindness. Always try to be polite, and just little acts of kindness go a very long way. |

There is a basic courtesy that women the world over never follow. I think they should lift the toilet seat after using it and safe us guys the strenuous task of bending down to lift it.
Heads to the microwave to put the popcorn in. |

I do question the female-centric view that the default state of the toilet is with the seat down. When will the matriarchy let us live?!?! |

Always keep an empty glass beside you when getting it on. Then you can surreptitiously spit in the glass all ladylike so as not to offend the gentleman by not swallowing his jizz and gobbing it across the room. |

"Not playing music from your phone in an enclosed public space, or on transport. Use your bloody earphones!"
There should also be a ban on wearing ear phones but it's so loud that the "tsk tsk tsk boosh" sound leaks out anyway. Gits.

Same with watching films.
If I want to watch a film on the Glasgow-Birmingham train I will. There are no occasions I want to hear the film the person three rows behind is watching. |

If hiking and on a path where someone is coming up as you’re descending, then give them right of way.
Not just because they’re probably gasping for air and need to get to that bench further up for a lie down. |
