Men of The Modern Age...

Do you feel that there are no "gentlemen" left in this world? It's almost like manners don't matter, and that girls an no longer looked at as the weaker vessel. I'm not saying that I want to be viewed as totally helpless, but it would be nice if the guys could be a little more considerate of girls. What do you think? Every so often a guy will hold open the door for me, or help me carry something heavy...but it's rare. Also, on the other hand, girls are becoming more forward, and I think that kind of confuses the guys just a little. Some girls want to be at the same level as guys, which in turn, gives guys the wrong impression of the feminine strength and a girls place. Girls have been the one to ask the guy out. I've also heard of the girl proposing to the guy!! Call me old fashioned, but I want to be the who's proposed to, not the one proposing. So what are we, as girls, to do in this day and age with gentlemen on the brink of extinction? Easy, BE A GIRL!!! Let the guy hold the door, let him help you with heavy packages, let him BE A GENTLEMAN. I admit, I have joked around and said that I can do anything a guy can do, or I have opened the door instead of letting him do it. Yikes!! Seems like I'm confused, but I'm working on that.
