No, I know. *smile* 'Refined' doesn't exactly fit Texas. But I'm not sure how to say what I'm trying to. Maybe I should just shut up. :lol:

When Women's lib first started sweeping the country, men didn't know what to do. They were used to opening doors, holding chairs, ect, for woman. Then suddenly women were yelling at men, saying they weren't lame they could open their own doors and move their own chairs. So men had to fight what they were taught. They didn't know if they were supposed to or not. If they did they got yelled at. And if they didn't, some women who weren't into women's lib would get mad.

I guess when a woman is an a dress, they must assume she isn't a women's libber and it's ok and they won't get yelled at. *Shrug*

My wife wears a dress, has long hair, is no women's libber, and can fight better than most men.  *cough*

Shes also a redhead.

She seems too sweet to be much of a fighter...

Just don't tell her that I said she could be a fighter and I won't have to go to battered husbands support group any more.  LOL

Look who she's living with.

Looking like a lady doesn't mean you have to be a wimp. Or act like one. I can do anything in a skirt that I want to do, including (When I was working at the museum) climbing the Playhouse's 20' tall ladder. Wore black tights so if any wiseguy wanted to look up the skirt they couldn't see anything anyway. And there were plenty of wiseguys there, believe me.

The Purple Fuzzy

Oh, I completely understand.  I've even water skied in a skirt, helped build churches, climbed on roofs to help my hubby, did the weed wacking for our yard care business etc, but Chelle just seemed so tiny and quiet...

BeccaBoo

What happened to her?

:o

Just kidding!!

Well drat.  Wish I had known that (not that the nurse was traveling, but that you were in my stomping grounds)

I always open doors for ladies. Or women.

If they get mad at me for it, I'm fine with that.  :freaky2: Actually it amuses me to no end...

I have not yet been beat up by a scandalized women's libber...

Sis

It doesn't happen much now but in the 70's it was crazy and guys just didn't know what to do.

mini

I think it was mentioned earlier, but you may see more of it depending on the part of the country you are from.

I don't open doors for women because they are ladies. I open the door because I am a gentleman.  :P
There is no statute of limitations on murder or bad first impressions.

I am enjoying my second childhood.
It is a lot of fun.
I have money this time!!

doesn't it kinda depend on the door and arrival time?

if someone is gonna get smacked by the closing door, I leave it open for them and do the hand off

if we're gonna get to the door at the same time I slow down if its a dude so he gets there first and has to at least hand it off to me if not completely open it for me

if its another female i'll sometimes walk faster and open it for them or do the hand off

if its the door to the post office and letting them in first loses me another place in line I race to get there first regardless

Sis

And if it's seth she lets the door shut in his face.   :laughhard:    :hypocrite:

:roll:  I don't mind holding the door open for guys, nor do I really mind the door being held open for me.  Normally, the way a guy friend and I handle it is whoever reaches the door first and if there is two doors, then one gets the first and the other opens the second. 

Sis

But there  was a time, not that long ago when if a woman held a door for a guy who wasn't handicapped, it was frowned upon. And if a guy didn't open the door for a woman he was frowned upon. That's why the great confusion in the beginning of women's lib.
