Do you like your man to be chivalrous to you?

Question

Do you like your man to be chivalrous to you?

Answer 1

I like a man who is courteous to everyone.

Answer 2

yes, a guy with good manners is a rare find ialso think it's form of respect a man can show his loved one.

Answer 3

Yep. Opening doors n all that.

Answer 4

Well, naturally.  Chivalry is nothing more than good manners.  I also like when my man accepts my chivalry toward him.  It should never be one-sided.

Answer 5

Of course - chivalry is about good manners and consideration, after all!!!

Answer 6

Yes, I do.  He is chivalrous!

Answer 7

Nope.

But maybe it's just 'cuz I'm a bit of a feminist.

Answer 8

Yes it's good ettiquette and manners

Answer 9

Absolutely. I feel deeply respected and valued when he does so.

Answer 10

Ladies will say they love chivalry.  Feminists will say they hate it.

Answer 11

YES! My husband is!

EDIT @ Steve's Girl and G M L: I guess they're just jealous of our manly husbands who aren't afraid to be nice to their wives. They are also jealous of us because we have enough self-confidence as women to let a man open the door for us and pull out our chair for us.

Answer 12

I love it! i think that I'm old fashioned inside and always longed for a "knight in shining Armour", when i met my bf i knew he was nicer than other guys and much more considerate. i like being treated like a woman, because i am one. i cant do some things that men do, so it is nice to have someone do it for me. things like opening bottles and jars, lifting heavy things, giving me his coat when I'm cold are all things that make me happy and are just a few of the reasons why i love him.

so yes, in general i think women do like chivalry.

Answer 13

No, if a guy is "chivalrous" then it means he helps me because I'm a woman, not because I'm a fellow human being. I'd rather he just be a decent person and help me when I need it.

But I do like being treated with respect, and treat my partner respectfully in return. We're still trying to work out the who-pays-for-dinner thing, though. I still think we should go Dutch and he still thinks he should pay.

Answer 14

I like to be treated by my partner and treat my partner with courtesy-not chivalry. I know we're both capable of taking care of ourselves-but we both like to do special things for each other-or do not so special things to show we care.

Answer 15

Chivalry no longer exists in this day and age. Whatever it is you're thinking of it is NOT 'chivalry'.

Chivalry was a military code binding the warlords (knights) in the mediaeval era. It was nothing particularly to do with respect or courtesy and it was nothing particularly to do with women. It was only to do with disciplining the 'serfs' (the men and women who were our ancestors).

(If you thought it was a "woman thing" then you've been watching too many Hollywood films.)

But we could do with more courtesy and respect and it should be a two-way street.

Answer 16

Yes.  My husband walks on the outside of the sidewalk, opens doors, helps put on my coat, pulls out chairs, holds my hand, puts his arm around me, carries objects that need moving, does the hard labor jobs that I deem to be a "man's job" (mow lawn, take out garbage, fix things, etc.).  Can I do all these things myself?, sure I can (I can even do a few car repair things) but it is proper for a man to do these things and it is what my husband also believes are man things to do.  To be a true lady (any female can be a woman but not every female can be a lady), one must recognize and graciously accept a man fullfilling his God-given dignity.

Answer 17

No. I don't like people doing things for me that I can't do for myself. He wants to be, but I told him that I don't like it. I'll make an exception one day for his sake.

Answer 18

Meh, it's nice now and then

I'm a feminist and think it's just fine if it's the man you love.

'how 'bout them cowboys' your just a sexist *** hole who has no life nor does any women love you because of it. Suck it.

Answer 19

Chivalry isn't something I regard as particularly important.  I like it when my husband does helpful things for me, like carrying things that are too heavy for me etc, but the sort of gestures that are typically regarded as chivalrous, opening doors, helping on with coats etc, aren't things he goes in for or that I want.
