Google it.Originally posted by yihao93:and that is? -
those who aspire to be knights upheld something loosely termed Chivalry.. there were seven common virtues:
Courage - to do the things that are right although it is difficult
Justice - to hold oneself to the highest standards of behaviour
Mercy - to create a surrounding of peace and tranquility
Generosity - not only material, but to offer time, energy and wisdom for the better of all
Faith - to be true, trustworthy and never lose one's integrity
Nobility - upholding one's conviction even when no one is around, links to Faith
Hope - to be positive so that one is an inspiration all around
with these virtues, Courtesy to the fairer gender will naturally come

If guys are less gentlemanly, it reflects something about the ladies too? Mind, only ladies befit gentlement...Originally posted by mystee:i feel these are basic.. like holding door, is like courtesy... but nowadays.. guys are getting less gentleman... -
a interesting note about holding doors open:
When you see a guy holding the car door open for a female.
1) either the car is new OR
2) the female is new.
And ladies can also hold doors open for females.
But what is ultimate courtesy is to check who is behind you when you are thru a door and keeping it open instead of letting it slam in other peoples face.
irrespective of who is behind you. -
being gentleman only reflects how good is yourself.. & not who deserve to be nice to.. if guys have to c how good is the gals to be gentlemen to them, mean that the guys are not gentlemen at all.Originally posted by binarynwitz:Why not say some girls really don't deserve guys being nice to them?

why only the "fairer" gender?
more like trying to show showing mercy to the "weaker, inferior" gender to me. -
