Apparently some women don't appreciate or like gentlemanly behavior... so:

Ladies, how do you feel about guys holding doors for you, or carrying things for you or other gestures?

Men, do you do these things? If not, why not? If so, has a women ever reacted poorly to it?

From the short life I've lived, I've never had a problem with anyone. I'm pretty sure some people might have found it odd for someone that looks like me to do so. There is nothing wrong with showing a little chivalry.
 
Well, when it comes to holding doors, don't feel special if you see me hold the door for you ladies, I do it for everybody both male and female.

As far as carrying things goes....NO, I will not carry your purse for you XD but if I see you need help carrying anything else, I'm there!

I have never really had a negetive reaction to holding a door for somebody, but I have encountered people who acted as if I owed it to them to hold the door and kinda scoff at me as they walk by.
 
I looooooove a gentleman.( a rough man can have his moments ;) but theres just nothing like agentleman)
I appreciate a gentleman and these qualities

I love when door is opened for me.
i hold doors open also.Its polite.
But a gentleman may open cardoor for you if he is driving and I find that very nice.

I also find it very attractive

Love the gents, love em :)
 

I am a middle aged woman. I very much like "gentlemanly" gestures.

I like the gentlemanly behavior :) I don't see how holding doors or carrying things for me can be offensive.....
 
I appreciate it too :) Very much. Causes my respect meter to go way up.
 
I open doors for women just to be nice but I don't usually open car doors for them. I mean, to open their car door and then walk all the way around and open my door is too much walkin.' I just pop the locks with my lil automatic lock popper and just get in.
