Very cute. Reminds me of a bit in the Adrian Mole diaries, where his Mum's become a feminist because she feels repressed, and Adrian comments in his dairy: "Women aren't slaves. They're let out to go to the shops sometimes" or words to that effect - seem to have lost my copies so can't check for the exact wording. ;D

French women still expect doors to be opened for them, cases to be carried, or seats to be vacated. They present themselves as elegant creatures who need men in the way that a perfect jewel needs the proper setting. It is still perfectly acceptable to compliment a French woman in a way that would rile her British Aussie or American sisters.

Include me out! I enjoy being treated as a lady. I like doors held open etc. I even used to enjoy a wolf whistle (way back when I got the odd one)  |

If someone is polite enough to open a door for me to let me through first, or to give up their seat for me on a crowded Underground train, then I always smile and say 'thank you'. It's only good manners, after all!
And if I see an elderly gent then I'm quite happy to let him through the door first or to give up my seat on public transport. It's called 'showing respect to your elders'.
