I'm always the gentlemen
But come on ladies when are you going to start helping us men.
Open doors for us
Stop to help change a tyre
Fix the washing machine etc etc
Got a feeling I'm going to regret this thread |

I hold doors for everyone. Most people do. It's not chivalrous, it's just normal.
I don't do the other two but no man has ever done either of those for me. Plus, I'd probably make it worse. |

I wouldn't want a woman to do anything for me. Or a man. I can do almost anything better anyway, why would I want a half assed job done.
Open a door for me is fine, but I'll hold it for you in the way out.
Pay for the meal, I'll get the next, pay half for a room etc....
Equal is equal right. It's not a competition. |

I hold doors open for men woman and children.
I can change a tyre and fix a washing machine.
I can put up level shelves.
The only thing I can think of at moment that I can't do that a man does is make sperm!

You won't regret it, you'll get the response you want. As attempts at being deliberately provocative go this is pretty poor |

I am happy to open doors for whomever, and will loudly say "You're welcome" when they don't thank you for it.
I was very grateful once when a nice guy stopped to help me change a flat in the snow on the Chase. (I just couldn't loosen the nuts thanks to the tyre place using their machine to overtighten them)
As for the washer- it's usually cheaper to replace it. |

... Just sent him to the shop (in the wind and rain) ... because, I'm clearly too 'girly' to manage it myself.

Lol I open doors for guys all the time
Helping change a tyre ..I'd say I'm more a hindrance
Fixing the washing machine...hmmmm I'm great at breaking them than fixing them |

Whenever I go in 90% of toilets the lid is up but the seat is down so I think women should either put the lod down after or put the seat up they're the ones always going on about it afterall |

I have stopped and helped many a person on the side of the road, fixed many mechanical objects and I hold doors for anyone following behind me, because I have the knowledge, strength and ability to do so. but I understand that not everybody, woman or man, has the abilities I have.
I was very lucky to be taught growing up how to change a plug, diagnose faults, fix things for myself, and now i'm even more lucky that I have a beautiful man to do all those things so I don't have to

Does that actually offend you? I'm a bit old school and have always done it, but I do it for anyone, not just ladies. |

I'd hate not to be able to do the practical stuff, I don't want to be looked after! This morning I was digging post holes and cementing the posts in, and this afternoon I hopped on a tractor and ploughed a small field. I love doing this sort of stuff, it makes me happy. I look pretty in a dress too
Holding doors open and being gracious when someone does it for you is common courtesy and not gender specific.

On the flip side I can do all the home DIY and car stuff, but I can also cook, clean, iron and even sew if I really have to. Totally domesticated me.Toilet seat aware and everything.. |

No it doesn't offend me, it was just a response to the OP. It's choice people do these things. I'm presuming the OP was tongue in cheek/said as a joke, but making out women expected men to do the said things.
Personally, if I don't know how to do something I can normally watch a YouTube video to find out how. |
