I'm not bitter towards women at all. I am courteous to all people, and I hold the door and give up my seat because I want to be nice, not because of some medieval concept that says I have to be extra nice to a certain group of people because they have a vagina and are the weaker sex (ie chivalry).

I hope when you say chivalry that you really mean common courtesy. I will purposely close the door on any woman who thinks that I should do anything for them simply based on their sex. I do things that are nice because I want to be nice, not because of chivalry. I don't owe women anything. I choose to be nice to people because it's the right thing to do.

If you really want chivalry and you really want to be treated as the weaker sex then fine, but you are pretty much saying you don't give a shit about women's equality or what many women fought for in the 60's and 70's.
