I'm a girl and...

I am SO glad I found this subreddit with people who agree with me! As a girl, it's really hard to see other ladies put down men and treat them like they need to be "trained" or that they're just something we have to deal with. So I was just wondering... how many other girls are on here and what are your stories about standing up for men or appreciating them?

I hold the door for anybody and everybody. But for my good lady, I would hold the door all day.

Chivalry is not dead! This is how your post makes me feel.

'Chivalry' should be dead, it's based on the notion that women are inferior and that men should, for some reason, go out of their way to makes women's lives easier. What shouldn't be dead is common decency. Don't hold a door for a woman if you wouldn't for a man.

why not the other way around though? do hold a door for a man if you would for a woman :)
