I just want to thank all of the guys who act like gentle men. Although some girls will push you away because they feel it's demeaning, I promise that there are girls out there that really appriciate the extra effort. It makes them feel like guys respect them, as people, not as superficial objects that society veiws them as. God bless. -Brittany Hey. I just want to thank all of the guys who act like gentle men.

Its not completely their fault though with all this all this corrupt thinking of this age like women are just as equal to or greater than a man.Just watch the Andy Griffith show they rise every time a lady enters the room they open doors and are very respectful.That was only 40 or 50 years ago and now look where in this state of every one is equal I can do it myself.I just hope God will shape me into the perfect gentleman.Oh,that part up there that says how you treat your sisters and mother is how your going to treat your wife.Sounds like a logical statement to me. Thanks for the great post. I think being a gentleman is great but it is hard when some women shun what you try to do.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate it when guys act like gentlemen- and are gentlemen! I feel so honoured and valued when a man- young or old, holds open the door for me, helps me with bags, or lets me walk in front of him. It is a rare occurrence, but when a man does show me respect in that way he defintiely gains my respect and admiration! Anyway, just wanted to say that it definitely has the power to make a BIG difference when girls are so used to being treated like objects. Thanks! :) THANKS TO GENTLEMEN!

I am reading through this series for the second time, and it makes me remember the rare occasions when a guy opened the door for me. It felt so good, and, at first I worried if the guy knew it was me he had opened the door for! :) But, I definantly know the feeling that a guy cared about you (in a Godly way of course) to do that! Again, thanks for sharing that story! Your sister in Christ, Molly W. Thanks for sharing that, Emily!

It really meant alot to me. And then he walked my sister and I to our door when we got home. I was so amazed. This blog came to mind. He just earned so much more of my respect with this simple gesture. I had been thinking a few days before this happened that I would love for more guys to do that, and that my future boyfriend/husband [[whoever that may be]] would definitely have to do that. And then this happened. I'm not saying that I'm gonna marry this kid, but it was just nice to know he put such importance on manners and chivalry.

It's obvious you know the subject and you are fervent about it. I'm developing a fresh web site plus I am attempting to make it look great, and also present top quality posts. Having gleaned much at this internet site and I look forward to a great deal more articles and will be returning soon. Thanks.

I really wish some of the guys at my youth group would read this... its just that IM usually the one always holding the door open for everyone and I really wish the guys would step up and help out! I mean it makes a big diffference on what I see in a guy. Thanks for this!

I know we girls can be a little prideful about accepting gentlemanly help, but believe me, when you guys do offer to help us we are grateful for it. It definitely makes us feel worth somebody's time and effort. I loved this article.

I just want to say this is my first time really looking at and paying attention to your site and I love it! I agree totally and absolutely with this. I, like Alli from up there in the post, am seriously competitive and am just beginning to learn how to accept such uncommon courtesy (especially since it is truly uncommon)! This really challenges me to think about what I'm doing, and so I challenge you all in return. To any girls reading this: let go of pride. Let go of snobbery. Let go of the feminist (which, by the way, does not help females AT ALL) mentality. Join me in learning how to be a woman after God's own heart. A challenge to guys: When a girl is rejecting your help, first, don't take her head off. Second, tell her you're not doing it to belittle her but rather to make her day a little brighter. Don't give up when we're being stupid and rejecting your help, but keep giving it. Then we'll know you're serious about it. GREAT POST! Wow.
