As a young person, I just open doors for everyone, because it's a nice thing to do.

There's no reason to restrict nice things to people based on gender and it can be viewed as patronizing to do so.



Ah but my question was specific to ladies. You didn't have enough information from my answer to conclude I only open the door for ladies. I open doors for men too.


If you read the grandfather comment. He specifically says he finds saying "ladies first" weird. If he has said he found saying "men first" weird I would have asked specifically about men.


Why does the question have to be specific to ladies? The answer isn't.
