MY OLD LADY

AINT YOU CONTRADICTING YOURSELF? YOU ASPIRE FOR A REAL MAN WHO WOULD RESPECT YOU BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU DONT WANT ANYPERSON WHO WOULD DO LITTLE THINGS TO PLEASE YOU. I AM AFRAID YOU HAVE NOT THOUGHT ABOUT THIS THOROUGHLY BEFORE SAYING IT. COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN YOURSELF OR SHUT UP.

na wa for u guys o, anyway the whole matter has been thoroughly skewed but i'll try my best to help (seeing as am such a nice guy, grin)
do i open doors for gels-yes(sometimes)
reason:it doesn't take anything away from me and its a polite thing do, jst like letting an elderly person enter a room before u

will i stand up when a gel enter the room-no
reason:who is ur father?
part of being a gentleman is being confident enuf of urself and ur abilities to do the polite thing and kno it doesn't make u seem weak,

'pending on how i feel i'm most likely to give my seat up for an elderly person than anyone else,
i cld also pull the seat out for a girl if i feel like it, but do i feel it makes lil' ol' me a gentleman? NO cos i'll still pinch,wind(or is it whine),tacci or tease the sh*t outta any gel dat catches my fancy(not in a hurtful way of crse, i'm more of a crazy person than anything else), if u like open all the door from here(or whereva u r) to tokyo and read and practice all d gentlemanly sturvs u can think of it wont change hu u r, jst find wot suites u best that u're comfy doing and DO IT

What does respect have to do with chairs pulling a chair out for me to sit, or waiting for me to sit for before he does.

My old Lady

Thats all woman like you can do, shout and scream and then you want respect from your man. Search yourself. I can also write all these 'F' and 'S' words but I wont. I never learnt these things. Moreover,I dont think I could achieve anything by shouting at you. What do you think you have achieved?  May be you are too old to learn anything or should I say 'grow up'

I was rushing to work on Friday and when I was about to enter a door with a friend when I stopped to hold the door open for a lady to pass, my friend was so irritatad that he didn't hide his annoyance. He even went on to tell other guys bout what happend. i found out that most of the people that saw what i did as irrelevant were Nigerians. Even Ghanian guys were a little complacent. But are nigerian guys gentlemen. Opinion from both guys and ladies needed.

@ Eldee:

Are you for real shocked shocked

I didn't want to bash my Naija brovas so I opted for the "endangered specie" option when I voted tongue

Well, if you're truly a gentleman as you say--- as in--- you do all those nice things you listed--- then I would say keep it up! It’s refreshing to know that there are a few of you left out there. I hope you find a lady who appreciates you for it.

As for my other Naija brovas---- take a hint!! Being a gentleman doesn't emasculate you. Rather it earns you “brownie points” on the “respect and trust” score sheet!!! grin

Re: Do Nigerian Gentlemen Exist? (Guys With Etiquette) by eldee(m): 6:32pm On Oct 27, 2007
i don't think there's anything like a perfect gentleman but it is actually a continuos struggle towards perfection that matters

This should be an old thread, but i will still give it a shot.

Somebody has said it earlier; Naija chicks mistaken all the things you listed for some other things.
So, if being a gentleman is doing all the things in the list, then i will honourably tell you that i dont exist as a Nigerian gentleman. I can only speak for myself.
