C.C, you shouldn’t really assume that your outdated and saddening desire to be some rich guy’s kept woman is shared by ‘we women’ because it is absolutely not desired by me or any woman I know! I don’t want to be catered to because of my gender – another reply said something sensible like ‘everyone should be courteous to each other’ – regardless of gender. And to the original poster – the two women you mentioned seem very strange indeed… I think you should continue the way you are (happy to give up your seat for the elderly or ‘an obviously pregnant woman’} – it sounds fair to me. Giving your seat to a pregnant woman is fine as it’s because of her condition, not her gender. PS About the actual ‘is chivalry dead?’ question… I think it’s on the way out. But what is it supposed to be really? Is it just men opening doors for women? Or can the meaning be changed to being polite and courteous to everyone? What do other people think?
