I’m a woman and I’m also a Barrister and Solicitor and I have to say that the vast majority of the men I deal with are gentlemen with the exception and of some of my clients. I think wearing a suit to work really puts you into a certain mindset and it does affect your behaviour. Ladies prefer men who behave like gentlemen even if you don’t wear a suit. Any woman who mistreats you for behaving like a gentleman is not a lady. Quality women do not behave like that. Please take heart and don’t change who you are if you are courteous, kind, respectful gentlemen. That never goes out of style with quality women who are ladies.

A few rules of thumb I've always tried to adhere to are: 1: A gentleman sticks to their code of ethics, but knows when to bend them and when it's appropriate to apply them. This also means that a gentlemen should treat people with the appropriate levels of courtesy, hospitality and respect until proven otherwise. 2: a gentlemen does his best to know core skills of self sufficiency, as he is usually prepaired with the tools he needs to perform general tasks and chores. Likewise, a gentlemen is able to adapt to his environment and use the materials neccisary to McGuyver solutions into place for the success of himself and his kinfolk on the fly. 3: a gentleman assists others when it is within his means of doing so, so as to better his community and thus make the world a better place. A gentleman is also knowledgable of when to say " No." To requests that are unfeasible. 4: A gentlemen upholds a form of ettiquette befitting his social environment to the best of his ability, adapting to new environments as water adapts to the form of a glass. 5: a gentlemen knows and appreciates both the simple pleasures of life as well as the finer things, is knowledgable on many topics of information so as to enjoy all forms of company, and should have hobbies he is passionate about. Hope this assists anyone who reads it and answers your question.

[@Joey21071]

To me, being a gentleman is never about how you dress, but about how you treat other people. It's holding the door open, it's giving up your seat, it's how you sit, it's pulling out a chair for someone, it's walking curbside, it's offerening the spot before you if they have less items in a check out line.

Taking a larger view, being a gentleman is about improving not only oneself but society in general. This is illustrated by the old story of the gentleman who was kind and courteous to everyone, even the crass and the coarse. When a friend asked him why he bothered to be nice to such boorish people, the gentleman responded, "Just because they are boorish does not give me license to become like them." He understood.

I raised two daughters and I went out of my way to teach them to offer a sincere "Thank you" whenever a man holds the door for them, or helps them with their coat, or pulls out their chair, etc... Those little niceties can go a long way in day to day life as well as in a relationship because it keeps people attuned to each other, but women need to know how to respond to encourage men to keep offering those gentlemanly behaviors. It really irks me when women respond rudely to a man who holds the door for them, and then turns around and complains about how hard it is to find a good man. Well...good men don't find your bitchy behavior attractive, sweetheart. It's a two-way street. Women can be independent, capable, and self-sufficient, but also know how to be a lady. Just like a man can be strong, capable, and protective, but also know how to be a gentleman. It's that balance that has been lost, much to the detriment of society, IMO.

I'm 23 and for some reason I always had a soft spot for gentlemanly behaviour. I don't really know where it comes from. I sure am not lacking a father figure, and he's generally wholesome, but I wouldnt say dad is openly gentlemanly, he just behaves properly and is respectful towards people. Which I suppose it's still a gentlemans attitude depending on how you define the word. But me, I like to take it a step further with my manerisms and I guess I was a bit cringeworthy in highschool because I was so tone deaf to how all boys behaved around me. Here's my 2 cents about it: I believe we live in very versatile and confusing times. People have conflicting ideas and aspirations and what we call "the society" is not as homogenous as we'd like to believe. Ask any individual, and they'd rather say they want a reserved, reliable, manerate friend that can be counted on. Ask a woman what they want in a -and I must stress it - long time partner, and she'll probably describe something along the lines of gentlemanly behaviour. You don't have to call it by name, if it smells like an apple, looks like an apple, tastes like an apple, call it what you want, it's an apple. The problem is that nowadays there is not one proper way to behave, because we have been exposed to so many typologies of people. Of people. Both men and women. There's a thousand ways to be each. And I believe one way you can't be these days is easily monodimensional. The rebel, the devout christian, the ladies man, the nerd, and indeed the gentleman, I believe all of these and so many more "types" give off a sense of ridiculous, of pretense, if they're leaned into too much. British empire was a highly structured society. But the world as a whole until the middle of the 20th century was more strictly structured by some system of class. Be it purely economical and not hereditary, one was still expected to behave a certain way if they were from low, working or high class. This still exists to some extent but it's nowhere near what it used to be. These are the observations of a 23yo humanities student, there's nothing scientific about what im saying, i dont claim that what I say is too accurate, it's just an observation based on my personal life and some studies. But you can see with the naked eye that there is not one definitive way to behave as either a man or a woman these days and being a gentleman is, to me, one of the riskier ways to go, because you may end up in that situation where you're taken advantage of. And if it's from a woman, all the worse, because if you try to be oldfashioned and she's only after a free meal, you may grow resentful of women and overgeneralize. I try not to get in that spot in the first place. Some people may say it's the loss of belief in god or the decay of morals and values and whatnot. I believe the root is way deeper than this. I believe for some time now, as technology and science has evolved, the west lost a sense of wonder and hope in what humanity could be. And now we're just, whatever fits. Im not saying we should be Christians or humanists or atheists. Im saying we should be something. Anything. To share a common ideal. And thus as a collective we might escape the postmodern cynicism that characterizes western culture and start trusting ideals again. Any ideal. The gentleman and the rebel equally. But not the rebel without a cause, nor the gentleman without a cause. This is my final assessment: we lack cause. We are stuck in a society where the greatest ideal is to get a proper job and be financially stable, if not rich. And the question is, even if we manage that, then what. How do we transcend ourselves?

Gentlemen are still here and hopefully on the rise. I always appreciate when someone shows me a kindness of opening a door, lending a hand, taking a package for me. I always make a point of thanking them and for their gentlemanly behavior. They may be in a suit, a uniform , even overalls or work clothes. Men be proud to be a gentleman and pass that trait on to your sons and male friends. There are many women who do appreciate that.

In my understanding of the video. The idea of being a gentleman is "earned" which is why it was respected.

We just need to set our boundaries so we will not get taken advantage of.

[@ricdonato4328]

Love the history, and your explanation. Thank you. You mentioned opening doors, allow me a personal experience. A while back, coming out of a store I held a door for a woman, she chastised me, said something to the effect "as a woman she is fully capable of opening her own door!"; a very condescending, snarky, tone of voice. My response as I smiled was "I did not hold the door because you are a woman, I held it because I am a gentleman." OMG, it was as though Mount Vesuvius went off, she had fire shooting from her eyes, her face flared red, her mouth was agape. Immediately I politely nodded turned and walked off. Truly, in today's times it is difficult being a gentleman, and women are fully paying the price for their negative attitudes towards men. Many men I know do not will not help women they do not know. Their question is what could I be accused of? At Home Depot a woman struggling loading 3/4-inch 4x8 plywood sheets on her cart. Men saw her struggle yet did not help, turned their back. Reason, they could be accused of all sorts of things and possibly berated by her for helping a woman; one man actually made that comment, a few men agreed. It is very sad, attempting being a gentleman is difficult, will the man be thanked or chastised? The attitude and behavior of men is all because of the negative attitude from women towards men. Women say they are independent strong women and they do not need men. They are getting what they asked for, men ignoring them, leaving them alone, giving women their space, and the like. Yes, behaving as a gentleman is extremely difficult and our reason for chivalry is mostly gone. On a side note, look how women's attitude towards men is affecting gyms along with their drop in male membership.

[@dantefernandodantezambrano7910]

I have been raised in a town whereas behaving well represents such a big part of oneself. Obviously, to behave as a gentleman gives us a good reputation on how we deal with others daily. The thing is that we, gentlemen tend to believe in others' promises, but once they break them; we feel betrayed. It is said that a gentleman never breaks his promises; nevertheless, if someone to whom we expect a lot, fails us; then our trust in people decreases until we believe nothing at all. Truth is not everyone understands what fulfilling a promise means, but for a gentleman, a promise must mean something he feels obliged to fulfill. That's how he becomes extraordinary among ordinary people.

My Grandmother raised me to be a gentleman. To always be well dressed, to show respect towards people, especially women and to never brag or be vulgar about my accomplishments... I have to say it was the worst advice I ever received. My grandmother failed to warn me that people don't respect you if you are respectful to them, in fact they take advantage of you and see it as a sign of weakness. She failed to inform me that women do not desire men who are just kind, respectful and courteous, that they will once again take advantage of your kindness and your generosity and leave you with nothing but a broken heart, and confused mind and an empty wallet. I was never taught that to be a true gentleman you need to be kind, courteous, chivalrous, well manoured and humble, but also have a strong sense of self respect, be assertiveness but not degrading, have a sense of style but not be vulgar. Only after I began adopting the traits my grandmother warned me against did I truly begin to feel not like a gentle person, but a gentleman.

Being a gentleman and being a "good guy" aren't the same thing. To me you sound like a good guy. And that's a misnomer. Never be a good guy. Good guys are who get run over.

Because of that, even though the tables were often unlevel, and the liquor watered down, it was probably my favorite indoor place to take a sip and hang my hat.

[@user-vg8ox3he1i]

Being a gentleman specifically as it relates to women is inherently based on a paternalistic view of women. In a world of gender equality, there is no reason or expectation that you will do anything for a woman that you wouldn't do for a man. You should treat people respectfully regardless of gender and without giving anyone special treatment simply because they were born a man or woman or otherwise. Often women complain about chivalry, but they only want the good parts of a paternalistic society. They want protection and provision, but they don't want to have to conform to any standards or norms of behaviour. That's fine, they can do whatever they want, but it's a package deal. So if women are going to compete with men on every front and then boast every win over a man, then I will treat them like any other competitor. May the best person win.

[@kirkdarling4120]

@C, you've got it. Chivalry and everything Antonio said about the origin of the "gentleman" class was all a product and function of Anglo patriarchy. Serfs did not practice chivalry, only those with power and authority (the right to bear arms) practiced chivalry, this idea of "protect all women." A man might naturally protect women who were directly connected to him, but "protect all women?" That's a product of patriarchy. Those with power and authority were the owners of the land and, thus, the defenders of those who were bonded to the land. It was their job to maintain control of their spaces. Dismantling patriarchy dismantles its products, including chivalry.

"there is no reason or expectation that you will do anything for a woman that you wouldn't do for a man." I won't push a seat in for another man sitting down, but I will for a lady.

As a married man, I won't go alone into a place with just me and a women but I will with another man. "I will treat them like any other competitor. May the best person win." I look at women as equal to me but they should be treated how I want a young man to treat my daughter. Like a Real Gentleman.

[@MicahMicahel]

We've all been tricked. I go to this leftist cafe where they sell these patches that have an illustration of a fairy tale frog with a knife through it and the words, "men don't protect you anymore." IT's saying the frog (from the fairy tale) should just be killed because it doesn't perform the functions it used to obviously but it's also an ADMISSION that they didn't even want feminism. The whole thing was a psyop. DO you want us to protect you still? would be the question to ask but they are programmed to say "no." well they wouldn't have this sentiment if they knew their minds. They've been tricked by alpha feminists that don't reflect their point of view.

The comparison of Cary Grant and James Dean and on into the complete crash of mens fashion after covid which has led to men's lack of effort, is eye opening. I recently tried to shop for French cuff shirts and cufflinks. I eventually had to buy everything online because nobody at the clothing stores knew what I was talking about. Only one young woman knew what I was talking about and she was so impressed. She practically melted. She said, "Oh, that's old school. I need you to talk to all the other guys". The thumbnail pretty much sums up the crash of fashion in American society. Being a gentleman while still being an innovative thinker is still very much alive in Europe. I have heard quite a few European women compare the average American man with European. It wasn't flattering at all. We basically are not the calm, sharply dressed men of power. We're basically considered more sloppy and desperate womanizers who know how to party. Embarrassing. It's possible to know how to rock a suit in your business meeting one day and jeans and flannel at a camp site the next and still be a sovereign and powerful American patriot gentleman. If I'm the only one then so be it. We just have to keep the lifestyle alive through our media and culture just as the Euros have.

But that's because I live in a hot climate and am not a fan of the heat. With regular temperatures being in the high 80s to mid-90s during Spring, and reaching easily into the triple digits during the Summer, shorts become a necessity when working outside as to avoid heat stroke. But, if I'm going somewhere important? A dinner party, a wedding, etc? That's when the good stuff comes out. The pressed shirt, the suit and tie, my grandfather's old cane, etc. There is a time and place for everything, and I'm not going to wear my, as my grandmother calls it, "Sunday Best" when I'm fixing fences and repairing old equipment.

Thank you for the video! It’s very constructive to me. I’m a 20+ female who loves to learn about masculine/feminine energy, trying to apprehend the ideal dynamic in a male-female relationship. I have always been watching videos by female creators/coaches, so it’s so refreshing to learn about a male perspective! I find your videos really useful and have been watching a lot of them, and now KZbin is recommending to me similar channels by other male creators and I find it so useful to include these perspectives in my thinking! ☺️ For example I have often thought: I love chivalry and gentlemanly manners, but at the same time I know there are females who never wanted to be in a loving relationship with a man, but just “use” him to get expensive things and experience. And I often thought: I wonder how men deal with this situation? How do they balance playing a reassuring masculine role for his partner, but at the same time not being taken advantage of? In this video you explained that unfortunately you just can be taken advantage of by some people who don’t even care about that when you apply some gentlemen manners and I feel that you verbalized my feelings. I’m sure many men face these situations too, it’s just refreshing for me to think from a male perspective too. I’m sure I can learn a lot more along the way as a loyal follower ! 😊
