There was a time when , if a lady got onto a crowded bus or train , a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer her his seat . Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or hide behind his newspaper . Either way , the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off .
You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners . The days are gone when women could be treated as the weaker sex . A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men ; not just equality in jobs or education , but in social attitude . Hold a door open for some to open doors for themselves . Take a girl out for a meal and she’ll probably insist on paying her share of the bill .
It is no wonder , then , that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women . On the other hand , man’s politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women , so that men can see women as equal human beings .
