Because we shave our legs and armpits and more for you. That's why.

    Well chivalry is defined as being brave, courtesy, and having honor, all very good qualities to have. Or having courteous behavior towards women. Why would you want to be rude to anyone? I think that everyone should be courteous of others be it men or women. Is it really so horrible to hold the door for someone, does it really matter if it is a woman or man why let it slam in their face. Does it make you feel big or important to be mean or rude to someone? I really don't understand the problem.

      most are not so quick to express chivalrous gestures for the fact that many (not all) women see mens actions as insincere with an alternative motive, also sometimes, for example when a man does something nice like open the door for them, they walk right in with no thank you or even a smerk. I noticed this type of behavior mostly from women in their mid 40's and younger, the more mature women seem to appreciate this nice public gesture, maybe given the fact we have a surplus of selfishness

      Oxford definition of chivalry:
      "polite and kind behavior that shows a sense of honour, especially by men towards women"

      If you think that chivalry should be to all then I agree, but most women feel ENTITLED to chivalry, that's where I have the issues.

      Apparently to him being courteous is giving women special rights and treatment

      You really don't see how chivalry contradicts feminism ? you want equal rights but not COMPLETELY equal, just the good parts
    • Answerer

      Nope.You can't defend yours either.You just keep saying "women feel entitled"
      I don't feel entitled to anything,but down here,guys are just gentleman and do these things without receiving looks or feeling obligated.It isn't my concern as to why you're so emotionally weak you let this woman get to you and magically represent all women.I feel entitled to nothing,so I just defended my point.Bye

      I'm not going around in circles,.

      The difference in that example is, the man doesn't EXPECT me to give him my seat, but the woman feels entitled to it.

      You can give it to a man.But if you did you wouldn't be crying sexism
      Women and men are different.Look dude I DON'T CARE IF YOU WANT TO BE A GENTLEMAN OR NOT.I couldn't care less.You're the one bitching about feminism,sexism,boohoo a girl wanted a seat and I didn't give it to her.There's no point in discussing it with you because you're going around in circles
    • Question Asker

      But how's special treatment equal ??

      If I'm more inclined to give my seat to you rather than a man, that is sexist, is it not ?
    • Answerer
      Over a year ago
      You're twisting what feminism is.Feminism is about women having the same rights and opportunities as men,it has nothing to do with men not being chivalrous.
      Look dude,I could care less how you treat women.Just get over the situation geeze.Talk about immature.
    • Question Asker

      "Because women and men are different"

      ok then what's the point of feminism ? same rights ? but chivalry is a right in sense, special treatment?

      Hos am I too immature?You're the one who has asked this question before,you're the one still hung up on a situation that happened days ago.You're the one who let this lady affect you so deeply you're still on it.
      I don't demand it,but where I'm from guys are gentleman.I rather be with a gentleman who was raised respectfully than someone who uses feminism as an excuse to be rude to women

      Whatever lol, you're a perfect example of wanting your cake and eating it too.

      and for the record, I'm not single rofl but whatever, you can insult all you want keeping in mind that I'm trying to have a civil discussion with you but you're too immature

      How does not treating them special = treating them like trash ??

      I treat them like I would a man, that's EQUALITY, is it not ? or do you want all the benefits of a man AND a woman ?
    • Answerer
      Over a year ago
      You've already said women deserve no special treatment,there ya go.You'd treat them just like trash.Hey then again,I'm not the one asking multiple questions about a simple situation

      How am I treating them like sh*t ?? no one gives me a bus seat, does that mean they treat me like sh*t ?

      It's not treating like sh*t, it's treating as equal.... is it really that hard to understand?

      Treating a woman like sh*t isn't gonna get you anywhere with women

      "Go ahead,don't treat a woman special,you'll be single forever."

      That there just proves that you think you're entitled to something.

    • Question Asker

      You still don't understand, I'll treat MY woman special, I don't need to do so for any other woman that's fully capable of doing things herself.

      Tell me this, you get into a bus and all seats taken, I give you my seat, what do I get out of it other than tired legs from the 45 min bus ride ?
    • Answerer
      Over a year ago
      I never said a man owed it to me,but down here they are chivalrous.Go ahead,don't treat a woman special,you'll be single forever.And if you do have a gf/wife or boyfriend even,I feel sorry for them,cause they'll never know a gentleman
    • Question Asker

      I respect your view...
      It is nice, but a man doesn't owe you it, understand ?
    • Answerer

      No one feels entitled,but it's nice when a man is chivalrous
      It's nice to be from the south.You must be from the north or mid west huh?
    • Question Asker

      No, I'm assuming both sexes are to be equal and no one is entitled to special treatment because of their sex.

    This question raises a very good point. Chivalry is essentially based on the idea that women are weak, inferior, need protections, etc. But the modern way of thinking says that everyone is equal? So which is it women? You can't have your cake and eat it too.

      It's not guys who made the big equality push. I would be perfectly happy to continue my chivalrous behavior if women would just admit that, while everyone should have equal rights, not everyone has equal abilities. As long as we continue with the foolish notion that the only difference between men and women is genitalia, we really should shelve chivalrous behavior so women can REALLY experience equality and see how much they like it.
    • Over a year ago
      Men and woman will never be equal. You guys won't ever be able to grow boobs or get pregnant.
      I personally find the differences between men and women what make a relationship so interesting and nice. If you want equality we can never cook you dinner, not shave our legs and never wear dresses and why not poke your asses with a strap-on...

      I'm sure her staring at you doesn't necessarily mean that she was expecting you to be chivalrous (i.e. she was just p*ssed off because you took the last seat). You might as well have just said something like 'excuse me, why are you staring at me?' It was her fault for not having gotten that seat first anyway.
    • Question Asker
      Over a year ago
      Yeah, it was because she was staring at me the whole ride and was judging me

      how is THIS not sexism ?
    • Answerer
      Over a year ago
      So you had 6 hours of sitting on your butt in lectures? I can see why you really needed that seat.

      Ultimately, there is no law that requires you to give up your seat to anyone. However, there's a reason why you felt guilty and I think you know what that was.
    • Question Asker
      Over a year ago
      I was on the bus and took the last seat, this girl gives me the dirtiest look the whole 45 minute ride and makes me feel all guilty, keeping in mind that I had 6 hours of lecture classes so I was tired as sh*t.
    • Answerer

      I thought this question was originally about you and girls you were trying to date, however you've made it clear this question is instead directed at all women except your girlfriend. Can you give some examples of where you've encountered women expecting chivalry?
    • Question Asker
      Over a year ago
      Because it's not sexually equal, the same reason women want to get payed more etc.

      why am I expected to do anything for someone just because they have a vagina ?
