| Of course. I don't think women should think that they should be treated better than men because they have a pussy and tits. And some other stuff posted in the Gender Double Standards thread, to add to my reasoning. D Is Cuss Since when did "D" become a cuss? |

| Not dead, just modernized, like many other things. |

| Nah B I still hold doors open and shit. I even put the seat down once or twice. |
| Chivalry..... women are wanting more equality right? Equal pay and job opportunities...etc. So we should kill chivalry if it isn't already dead. No one gets special treatment unless you think they deserve it. SO.. yeah. Simply being nice is another story. |
 |
| It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. |
| My subjective reviews: katsureview.wordpress.com THE CHAT CLUB. |
| I find it amusing how when a guy does something polite for a woman it's called chivalry, but when a girl does something polite for a man it's called manners or common decency. Chivalry is a pretty useless term, everyone should just be polite to everyone. |

| I think that men generally treat women better than they did say 50 years ago. So to a point there is more Chivalry than before. But I never raise my hand to a woman, and often times do protect them when they are being discriminated against. I would do this for men too. |

| Was chivalry ever even alive in the first place? |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
kuuderes_shadow said: Was chivalry ever even alive in the first place? Not likely, seeing as not many of us know the word (we're highly intellectual, we possess intelligence that no ordinary human being can possess). On a side note: I'm an idiot. |
rm00 said: Chivalry, or the chivalric code, is the traditional code of conduct associated with the medieval institution of knighthood. Chivalry arose from an idealized German custom.[1] It was originally conceived of as an aristocratic warrior code — the term derives from the French term chevalerie, meaning horse soldiery[2] — involving, gallantry, and individual training and service to others. Over time its meaning has been refined to emphasise more ideals such as the knightly virtues of honour, courtly love, courtesy, and less martial aspects of the tradition. The Knight's Code of Chivalry was a moral system that stated all knights should protect others who can not protect themselves, such as widows, children, and elders. All knights needed to have the strength and skills to fight wars in the Middle Ages; they not only had to be strong but they were also extremely disciplined and were expected to use their power to protect the weak and defenseless. Who modern day warrior here? I am. |

| Well... I don't have a horse, neither a sword. But my heart.... IS A KNIGHT'S HEART. I fight everyday against my thoughts, and other people thoughts. I have to face doubts and the evil. For all that, I believe that everyone is a warrior at the deep heart. Yes... That is what I believe. Thx yoshino. |

| We've had this thread before...I'm sure of it. Anyways, if we're talking about the whole "Treat girls special just because they are girls"....I hope it IS dead. Although, ironically some girls who believe in "equality" (lol) would prefer to be treated special....just for being girls. |
monster7foot6 said: MellowJello said: Only if you believe. This isn't the Polar Express... Yes it is. The Chivalry Express. OT: I think the game still has a strong following. AOT: Yes, sexism is sort of on a decline, but not entirely dead. Debin said: j0x said: define Chivalry first Elaxer said: What is chivalry? Indeed, what is Chivalry? "Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is a first-person slasher with a focus on multi-player. Featuring competitive online combat that seeks to capture the experience of truly being on a medieval battlefield. Inspired from the intensity and epicness of swordfighting movies such as 300, Gladiator and Braveheart, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare aims to bring that experience to the hands of a gamer." |

| I would like to know a moderm term for chivalry. Also, can't girls be chivalrous too? |

| Chivalry is not dead, it is just tired at us humans. Though it has not abounded us yet, it still makes us show gratitude and hold the door up for each other. Although I wish it would spend some more time around us, I wouldn't blame it for getting tired at us. Pardon my attempt of being poetic. |

LevailRenn said: this question reminds me of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymNdfdQvdVc That's what I was thinking too. Chivalry is dead and women killed it |

Candor said: Is that a question? Apparently it's a statement. |
| Let's just all agree to be nice to everyone! YAY! |
 |
| Still treat ladies with respect though. |
| I do not think that chivalry is dead, but rare. monster7foot6 said: I don't think chivalry entails treating a woman 'better' than a man. A man performs chivalrous acts because he cares for a woman, not because she believes herself 'better' than him. You don't perform acts of kindness for other people because you think that they are 'better' than you. And the woman who is having, say, a door held open for her by a man, should be grateful, not haughty.I don't think women should think that they should be treated better than men because they have a pussy and tits. |
| Pretty much. I try to be polite to any person regardless of gender, but manners at least where I live seem rare. |
| "Your argument is like a naked banana--it simply lacks appeal." |
ZeroZephyrum said: True, a woman can open a door on her own, but it's the fact that the man is doing it for her anyways that makes it a chivalrous act. When it comes down to it, a man could perform a chivalrous act for a woman, while the two of them are the only people in a room. And not every man who is performing a chivalrous act is doing it for attention. Sure, he probably wants his wife or girlfriend to at least give him a smile or something in return, but I don't think that would be a lot to ask for from her. It's give and take, and I think some fail to notice that. Instead they choose to only see it from the perspective of only the man, or only the woman.if we're talking about the "omg chivalry, he held a door open for a girl" bit, thats stupid and we can open our own doors, and everyone knows we can open our own doors. that kind of chivalry is both a way for people concerned about their appearances to be seen as polite as well as a generic way for "nice guys" to flirt without having to stop being a beta I still don't believe that every man who performs a chivalrous act has shady motives. |
| Not sure if it's "dead" or what that would even mean, but it's dumb. |

Ramen007 said: Oh God. "This is for your sake, sweetheart. You might not understand -- and I don't blame you for that, being that you were born with a vagina and a limited intellectual capacity -- but trust in me. Learn to appreciate that I'm acting out of your best interest."

She should ask if he's up for a jousting match as well, if he's holding the door open with chivalrous intent. |
