| 22-4-2008 | The other day when filling up with petrol there were two men waiting to be served in front of me when along came a woman with £50 who went up to the counter, placed the £50 on the counter and said the pump number and walked away.
Even if she had the right money she had no need to get aw...more | A Decent Gentleman |
| 10-3-2008 | There is generally all over the world a lack of good manners, not restricted to one social, political or economic group in particular. People may argue that good manners are no longer needed (or indeed never were), that they are a waste of time and effort. I argue that good manners cost absolutely n...more | Morwen |
| 05-2-2008 | I guess 70 to 80% of people I open doors for or keep them open to save them having to re open them, stroll through without a word of thanks. When I stand and wait for people to walk through the door they breeze past without any acknowledgement.......which Is really annoying as I'm a gym enthusia...more | Peeved. |
| 14-6-2007 | Only the noneducated, the financially challenge and the ignorants shamefully lack good manners!!! | Shame |
| 13-6-2007 | Women's rights has nothing to do with Gentlemanly manners. Shame on you! because rights has nothing to do of how you treat the woman that you love and of course women in general.

| 28-3-2007 | In the know - please don't assume all women are like that. Agreed, there are a lot who are, but there are just as many men who are rude and ignorant. I always appreciate good manners, e.g. door opening and always say thank you - and sorry (when things are not actually my fault - like being pushe...more | Well mannered |
| 28-2-2007 | Women should not be stood up for on buses, but stood up on dates. They just don't pay their way. Why should the man be expected to pay for everything? It's an absolute con. Beware the gold-diggers. Beware the teasers. They are simply playing a very nasty game.
Sit down. Ignore the pregna...more | In the Know |
| 28-2-2007 | As far as I'm aware opening doors for people and giving your seat up on a bus is not an exclusive practice of a gentleman.

| 05-12-2006 | If men or women want to be rude then its up to them. If you men want to be rude and show off your lack of manners then fair enough - dont blame equal rights as from a distance you just look like the type of person that most dont want to associate themselves with.

| 26-7-2006 | Am I the only person who believes the loss of good manners has to do with too much television watching and careless parenting? I live in Chicago and I work in contruction.
