Chivalry is dead

Journeying around London, whether it be for personal or work related reasons, gives me a lot of time to think. As noisy as the train’s engines may be and no matter how many bodies are inside, a London train carriage is dead. With silence like that, who wouldn’t be inspired? 

Today’s topic, Chivalry. Below are my thoughts. 

“Right now when I write this I sit on the London Overground heading to Stratford. In the six seats that surround me (including mine) 4 women are sitting. And one little girl is standing, yes who can stay standing as she young. And not because she's got younger legs than me but because if chivalry is proportional to time. When she's 40 men will be using her as a seat.   

Action: woman comes near my seat.
Reaction: I ask if she wants to sit.
Her reaction: politely says no.   

Chivalry is dead? Maybe. But more importantly do woman want chivalrous men?    

As a gay man I fulfill a lot of stereotypes. One being I have a lot of female friends. Can I just put it out there that I'm sorry guys. Your fucked. Woman or a least the ones I know are crazy. But I give you hope. They know it's crazy. No that's wrong, some know they are crazy and what they are looking for is that person who makes it ok to be crazy so they can stop feeling crazy. I know it's crazy. Respect to anyone who followed that.  

The point is, chivalry; I think firstly it depends on the woman but mostly woman want chivalrous guys when they want them and but my god when they want to pay half, let em.
 
To my fellow men, I wish you luck.
Me. I'm just happy to be gay. And if I'm honest, I would be the crazy one. But we all knew that!”
