I may sound old-fashioned, but I want to
think all women should be treated like I want my wife,
daughters, and granddaughters to be treated. I notice today
that good manners—like standing up when a woman enters
the room, helping a woman with her coat, letting her enter an
elevator first, taking her arm to cross the street—are
sometimes considered unnecessary or a throwback. These are
habits I could never break, nor would I want to. I realize
today a lot more women are taking care of themselves than in
the past, but no woman is offended by
politeness.
