do you try to be a mannerly young gentleman?
i do. open doors, pull out chairs, stand up when a woman returns to the table provided we are at a nice restaurant and not mcdonalds, etc. unless i'm in a bad mood, then sometimes i just slam the door in my girlfriends face and what not. |

I pull seats / open doors / let ladies go first but I don't stand. That just seems to me like an old tradition with no real value aside from being a gentleman. Opening the door though benefits them, they don't have to open it. Standing up just makes an ordeal of their return to the table.
