    Women’s attitudes about chivalry and equality can be funny things. On the one hand, women in general want to be treated as equals. We want the same career opportunities as men and to be paid the same for the same job. We also want to be able to make our own choices and be in control of our own lives. On the other hand, many women also don’t want to give up the deferential treatment that chivalry requires – the opening of doors, giving up of seats, etc. In my opinion, if we are all going to be equal, why should men still be required to fall all over themselves to be chivalrous? I mean, if a man and woman are walking together, the man shouldn’t open the door, go through and let it close in the woman’s face, but the woman shouldn’t just stand there in front of the closed door and automatically expect the man to open it for her, unless she’s carrying a bunch of stuff. People should be polite and courteous to each other.
