All that is man…

This post is going to be short.  I have noticed something over time that I want some feedback on.  Anytime I hold a door open for a lady and a dude happens to be walking behind them, I will hold it open for him as well.  What I have noticed is that If I am holding the door open, dudes will walk through the other door.  They will exert the energy to physically open the other door rather then just walk through the already opened one.  Or they will say thank you, but hold their hand out as if to catch the door when I let go, just so they can open it themselves.  What is that all about?  Comments?

because they don’t want to be treated like girls. they want to give that not receive it.

just give them the door ;)

I think it’s nice to let the man holding the door for me go first instead. It’s almost like saying, “Thanks for holding the door for me, now let me be polite back to you and let you go in before me.”

True, but when they go around, or take a different door, its like they are saying “dude, im not a chick, move cause i’m a man and I open doors alone”. My point is just that man or woman, if someone is holding the door just walk through and get on with life.
