Discussion for my mature NT'ers: Do you open car door's for women?

[NCtwin]

My mother is also a single mother(and has been my whole life), so your point is...??

Chill out. I've been told by numerous ladies (both old and young) that Mom raised me right. I just put it up there because I know I wasn't the only one told that.

To you, there may not be a right or wrong in this situation, but personally I don't see the problem with doing it. You're a grown man, do whatever you want. I'll continue to do the same.

I'm honestly shocked at the amount of men who DON'T do it....

But again, both parties know it is a joke.

That way I am doing it (physically) but they know I am not really doing it, so they won't think I am rolling out the red carpet.

why?

Usually not unless I really like the girl and just want to see her reaction.

[toast1985]

Not bent out of shape either way, but if it is a concern of a right or wrong, I would certainly want an articulate answer justifying why.

at what point (if any) can you stop saying thank you to a guy that opens doors

i appreciate it 100% but sometimes i feel ridiculous saying it 1000 times a day every day...

an ex got mad cuz i said it so much & i was tired of saying it but i didn't want it to come off like i expected it or wasn't grateful

no one ever opens my car door for me...only time i see that is with older couples who have probably been together 30+ years & its always so cute

hold up wait? your a female...

 

[trappstar]

Absolutely. Being a gentleman will get you a long way in life.

Because it is simply a car door. When the time is right, I will do my variation of rolling it out, but not for that situation I won't.

seriously speaking, I open and hold doors for everyone, it's a natural instinct. If I open a car door for a woman it's usually premeditated tho
