...not much, just wanted to let you know that today this young woman said "Thanks" when I held the door for her. Woot! :-P

P.S.: I hold the door for anybody (male, female, young, old, hot, guly, etc.), if there seems to be the need for it.

LOL LG...I heard about a man who fainted when a woman said thankyou
for the same..A few days ago...
I held back to let a woman through a door at work and she snarled at me "Go ahead"
I replied politely "Thankyou"
Mostly you cant win...In London I heard of a man who held the door open for a young woman and she said
"I Hope you are not opening that door for me because I am a woman?"
He replied "NO I am opening it because I am a gentleman" as he walked off.
In an office many years ago (these were the ones who ripped my shirt off)I walked passed the group women blocking the doorway and said:

"Excuse me"

"You dont excuse pigs you shoot them" said one.They all laughed.

"Why are you still alive then?"said Brad mockingly as he walked on

Nice retort, Brad!

My Mom used to use that line, but it was for when one of we kids had burped and said "excuse me..."

I'll open the door for most people, unless they are an obvious entitlement queen or a scowling angry-looking woman, who you just know will make some nasty ungrateful remark.

I've found in my experience most men will say thank you, cheers, ta, thanks, nice one etc. However, most women will not say anything or even acknowledge you, I just get the feeling they feel it's something they expect, an entitlement. Also it's just plain rude, and makes me less reluctant to repeat the gesture again.

Understandable CD..
I have thought of something humourous:

For example as an "in joke" for this site the next time a woman is misandrist or rude like this we should all say something cryptic:

"woof woof ....go read angryharry on the net" OR

".... did you know you're going to be famous?"
(because we will be writing about her and her response)

"they have already written about you in Sherwood"

Sherwood is Brad's pet name for this dearly beloved website(why? its topical,its where outcast and merry men go for refuge from the wicked feminazi regime)
I am sure you can all ADD polite and cryptic retorts -which cause the recipient to think.
They would expect you to snarl back not make a cryptic remark!!!

If they ask what are you going on about ?..say
"The Antimisandrist Council might tell you themselves one day"
