Feminists Killed Chivalry

Posted by Mrs Zeee on 09/22/2009

I am going to start this post with a big, fat disclaimer asserting that I am not a feminist and I am not a pacifist. I am a supporter of strong, independent women.

Oh, by the way, I am also a supporter of strong, independent MEN!

You know, the ones who personify chivalry and make it a point to open doors as a sign of respect for women?

Guess what? Most of them don’t exist anymore.

Thanks to some outspoken, bra-burning B!T@H who asserted herself against a chivalrous gesture, men everywhere now shirk their responsibilities to the fairer sex.

Thanks to that loudmouth, whoever she is or was, I have to juggle my lunch tray and open the door on my way back to my desk from the cafeteria, while a group of four men watch me, dumbfounded.

What have we done to these poor, cowering fools? Feminists scared them into submission. It’s pathetic!

I don’t need uber-feminism to validate me as a woman; I need someone to help me open the freakin’ door when I am fumbling.

Heck, I’m willing to play the damsel in distress if it means I’ll get it!

I TOTALLY feel the same way! Seems like we took a step back when we took a step forward! Now we not only work, we cook, clean, mother, chauffer, do laundry, fix a busted tiolet, throw out garbage, do homework, and all while looking pretty! Shoot I’m worn out being treated equally! I say treat me unfairly and pull out my chair. LOL

I’m with you! I find that mostly women are the chivalrous ones nowadays. Numerous times I’ve helped women juggling strollers / luggage up the stairs. And I’m first to give up my seat on the subway to an elderly person, or overtly pregnant woman, because sometimes it’s just hard to tell if a woman is pregnant or just has a love fest with Twinkies (like I do). But when I hold the door open for you, please remember to say “Thank You”… I find manners are fleeting nowadays as well.
