My daughter is 15 years old and whenever the little 11 year boy we live near. Sees her with more than one bag. He runs over to help her with the bags and carries them to the front door for. He is so polite and has lovely manners. I think women who don’t get that attention resent other women who do. So ultimately, they start to build unnecessary campaigns against it.

[@melinmove]

I would agree with this and I'm a woman, but i also agree that some men do patronise women in ways that are discussed here b

[@ianraper4304]

@@melinmove It's not a matter about patronising or courtesy, it is a matter of respect - women respecting men and men respecting women. I recently opened the doors for two women (on different occasions) and received two different responses. The first smiled and said thank you. The second looked at me quite coldly and said, 'I can open the door myself!' I felt like closing the door immediately and saying go ahead, however courtesy prevailed and I did and said nothing untoward.

[@melinmove]

@@ianraper4304 Both can be and are true, men can be patronising, i was with a guy for years who treated me as if i was a little girl. If you asked him why he did it he would say he was just trying to protect me, but since i got with him so young it actually stunted my growth as a person and i never learnt things for myself. Lack of respect can also exist, it's not one or the other, both patronising behaviour and lack of respect between men and women can also be true. I personally don't have an issue with men or women opening the door for me, and i even open the door for men as well, because i don't believe men should only do this and women should only do that mentality.

[@candythomson844]

​@@ianraper4304i think 🤔 there should be more gentlemen like you in the world 🌎

[@smoly37]

People should be chivalrous to EACH OTHER!! I hold doors open for my best girl, elderly people, my boyfriend, unknown men and women. Because it is just rude to slap a door behind you into someone else's face. When it comes to automatically assuming that the man that you have a meal with, pays for it, is another thing. If I earn a better wages then the guy I go out with and he's a good friend of mine, why should HE pay?? In romantic situations I always discuss and not assume. Do you want to split the bill? When I notice a guy is really uncomfortable with that and he insists on paying: that's a totally different story. But you have to go back in time a little further. Where do you think that custom came from? Why did men start paying for women they took out and what was their ultimate goal? Right. THINK!

As a young lady in her 20s I APPRECIATE chivalry. I don’t know what this lady is talking about 🙇🏾‍♀

[@psims7342]

from a mans perspective, in the age of equality there is no "ladies first". i dont recall a time when its ever even been depicted that a woman puts her coat in the puddle for the man to walk through, a woman pulls out a mans chair for him to sit, a woman holds a door open as an act of chivalry for a man........etc etc.......i dont mind treating others as they treat me, but after just a few seconds of this video i get the impression that whilst this woman calls the above examples "good manners", i do not get the impression that her manners would be "good" enough to return the favour, if they were id expect her to mention it and because she didnt i can only assume that her manners are not up to the same standard that she expects from others, specifically men. its all well and good "teaching your two teenage daughters" to have manners, but its not depicted as manners when a man holds a door, puts his coat down, pulls chair out for woman etc.........thats depicted as chivalry. i also note how, while she claims to be teaching her daughters to have good manners, she makes no mention of whether or not those taught "good manners" include pulling a chair out for someone (specifically a man) to sit down and thats why it reeks of hypocrisy, and thats equality for you - they want to keep the bits they like but disgard the bits they dont and still call it equality, ie, they want to be MORE equal than men of course this is not true of all woman and in fact only true of a few, but these few seem to somehow have the platform available to spew their toxic views, just like the woman in this video who seems to be making up as she goes along and then tripping over her own hypocrisy
