"A recent survey said that women no longer see a door being held open or a chair pushed in as a gentlemanly act. So ladies, what makes a man a Gentleman and do you even want one? "
Unless they've surveyed every woman on the UK then they can't really make such a sweeping statement (and I don't recall ever being asked that question  )
I think both those acts are gentlemanly so I'd have ruined their survey results!  |

of course it's considered a gentleman thing - pure manners and it's a rarety these days so always appreciated
taking your bags for you, holding doors, pull out your chair, i like them all. I do not consider them patronising, it's nice x |

I will hold open a door for anybody who happens to walk behind me, I show respect to everybody, male and female, old and young - I appreciate it when people reciprocate this irrespective of their gender and status.
Yes, it is lovely when a gentleman holds a door open for me - yet in today's society and for reasons of gender equality I would not EXPECT it.
In the same way I would never expect a man to pay for my dinner - we would go halves or we would take turns or I would find another way of making things balanced and fair.
Does that answer your question? |

One who talks nicely, is well presented and will bury his face in my crotch for an hour or so at a time. |

Agree, and no one asked my opinion either!
I left a meet early because the man didn't hold the door for me. Regardless of who's coming behind me I hold the door: it's just common courtesy!
When I mentioned it he looked at me in surprise and said "this isn't a date!". If he wasn't decent in public he wouldn't show any respect in my home so that was me out!
For weeks he pestered me to meet...yeah, right!  |

that's total bollocks, if a man cant open a door, he has no chance of opening anything else! |

Met a guy recently and we were leaving a club, he opened my passenger door for me to get in before driving me home.
Its one of the not=so-usual things that I will remember, it made him stand out. Its not that I expect it, but it made me feel special, and I always pay my way, thats just how I am. |

I love men that act as a gentleman!! So rare these days...though to be fair, these days, men are damned if they do and damned if they don't, but a bit of chivalry goes a long way in my book, so keep it up guys xx (in more ways than one) |

I was described as being smart once when all I was doing was being a gentleman. It's nice to see opening doors, carrying things, offering your jacket on a cold night the free things we can donate still appreciated.
I think sometimes we gentlemen can overstep the mark when offering to pay for things as going Dutch seems to be the right way but it's always in the details lol
Now got my suit, where did I leave my Steed? |

It always makes me feel special when a guy has manners. For example he helps me with my coat for me as I leave. Sometimes I do literally have to "get my coat". I am capable of puting it on myself its just nice to be treat with courtesy and, as above, it doesn't cost anything.

I love a man to be attentive for exapmle opening a door for me or something like that. I have also been given a mans coat when I was cold once and almost melted into a puddle lol.
The men who are gents outside the bedroom show care and thought.
If they do that out of the bedroom then in the bedroom I hope they are just as considerate. But then also a dirty fooker too   |
