over one third of men would never help a woman struggling with a baby buggy on stairs
   
Over a third of the 5,000 men surveyed said they would never help a woman struggling to carry a buggy up or down stairs, for fear of offending the mother

Is chivalry officially dead? Men unlikely to offer women seats or help with buggies due to fear of offending


Only one in seven men will offer their seat to a woman on a train or bus

Over a third say they never assist mothers struggling with heavy prams

But only 7% of women view chivalrous acts as patronising

Three in five men appreciate women holding doors open for them

It's official. Chivalry is dead.

These days men profess to being so worried about offending women and being accused of being patronising they are becoming reluctant to offer the so-called 'fairer sex' seats on public transport, to hold open doors and to help mothers carrying buggies up and down stairs.

Only one in seven men will offer their seat to a woman on a train or bus, and over a third say they never assist mothers struggling with heavy prams, according to research.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Guarantee you that poll was taken in liberal cities. Here in red state hell Columbia County, Ga., you hold doors for everyone and always ask to help if anyone is struggling and needs help. Then again, there's a chance the person you're helping is a conservative so it makes it all the much better. As for chivalry being dead, if it is, you hairy-armpit lezbo Prog bra-burners killed it.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Gender equality ends for most modern feminists when the wait person brings the check.

What gender are we talking about ?   Seems that in Wal-Mart rest rooms we woman run into men wearing dresses every day.    Oh and when will it become a hate crime to call a male in a dress a man.?

Thinking things through period is not common among the left. I hold up Obamacare as one of the more recent examples.

That's exactly it.  This is the crass society they created and, like a typical infant, they stare blankly over their broken toys.

You people have no sense of self-awareness.  Single-celled organisms have more developed reasoning skills than you.

You are retarded. You are inept.  Your emotional development ended sometime in Sophomore year.  Everything you do ends up to be a self-created nightmare.  So?  You just blame those that are writing the check.

You need to die.    :bird: :bird: :bird:

Yes.  This is exactly how flyover country works. It's always been that way.  It doesn't matter if it's male or female...a hot lookin' babe is  just a bonus.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
