It could be that people are just hungry for pizza.

At my place if they open ten doors you better get out of they. They will leave boot prints on your back side. Lol.

well it was said in humor ...with a grain of truth

And to the deluded members who responded to this thread by suggesting that it's something that is taught early at home by the parents, well I got news for you.
Children spend the better of their time at school and will pick up good or bad manners at school.
Parents nowadays are little more than glorified babysitters, and that's just when the TV is off. ( Forget about the 'glorified' bit for the dad, he's just a 'Yes-Man', if he knows what's good for him ).
I learned all my good manners at school and at the orphanage where I was raised from 2mo old to 8yrs old. It was a Catholic School that did me the most good toward my manners and respect for others, even down to table manners and bathroom musts.
As I previously stated, I used to be very well mannered and polite until Second-Wave Feminists ruined gender relations by calling the castration of ALL men. I chose Vasectomy because I deemed that 3 wonderful children was largely enough but, unlike many, I DO think about my fellow Men, amongst which, many still aspire to having a family of their own... With how stacked the deck is against men, those Fellow Men can now forget about the 'own' in the previous sentence.
In conclusion, since I didn't see or hear any support for Men who woke up one day faced with the Gender War ( a war women started in their delusional attack of a Patriarchy ) and a rigged system, I've chosen to forget my good manners towards women who seem to be under the age of 70.
As I said before, you can't crap on someone without expecting a blowback.

Nowadays I'm very polite to old men and women. I help them any way I can and am the first one to give them my seat on a bus, tram or subway. All the rest can put their muscles and balance where their mouth is.

i wonder where they are

I like your anewer . It's a win win situation for everyone

I like it when a man holds a door open for me. I ALWAYS say thank you.

helllllllo

I'm a real man

I'm a real man

Me too

most still do ... I held the door the other day for a women ...
well walked right out did not say nothing ... so I said thank you ...
always stumps them lol she turned around and said oh thank you ... and I could tell she meant it ... lots on her mind ...

They all got snapped up by some strange woman they accidently opened a door for, she then became their wives and she now gives them evil looks for opening doors for other strange women.

I believe I still have the old fashioned values in life

Interesting,
On the one hand, I always hold the door open for a Lady,
But if I am on the Bus or Train after a hard days work, there is no way I am giving up my seat, apart from that,I hold the door open for both men and women if it makes life easier, and I have had both Genders do the same for me, it's just being polite.

: she enjoys it but can't stand it when He does it for others.

I open doors for anyone, doesn't make you anything special, just means you had good parents who taught you manners.

Was about to say. Glad someone beat me to it!

I do it to the elderly Men and Women always....I'll
even help carry their luggage or give them a lift.
Atimes I might do it if a young lady catches my fancy....
But going forward,I will put in more effort toward it who knows I might just land my dream woman through this .....lol
I think its good to be nice.
