Easiest way to explain why I try to be chivalrious is well I’m hoping that it spreads but lets face it I’ve been at it for over 15 years and I am not blind to the fact that I get penalized for holding doors and doing “nice things”. It’s viewed with suspicion, it’s considered weak and it serves as a point of ridicule for me.

I’ll admit, sometimes I hold the door open too early but I always thought that it’s the thought that counts. Well recently over heard a co worker label my offer to walk her to her car (saturday night) as “the holy walk” without realizing that I was in earshot of course.

Fair enough, I probably won’t change but I won’t hope to fix the world either :( .
