So I was told I being patronizing to a woman simply for opening a door for her at the store. She was all “I can open it myself thank you….don’t need no man commanding me what to do!” My response: I was just being courteous to a random stranger. Thanks for the unnecessary rudeness! WTAF is going on? Is it truly wrong to try to be a gentleman anymore?
@Punisher1976 i would just reply:
' i'm sorry you feel that way. i hold the door open for everyone regardless of gender b/c it's a kind thing to do. and i try to be kind.'
then walk away. leave them stuttering in the dust. it can be very satisfying. 😉
also, it's not about being a 'gentleman' which is gendered. it's about being kind, right? just be your kind self. others will recognize it and appreciate it. 😊
@singlemaltgirl @Punisher1976 She might have been having a bad day! Either way SMG is correct.
