I have to agree with Carno here. In my mind chivalry and common courtesy are two very different things.
When you were helped at the store, SugahBritches, the man did not help you because he was chivalrous, he did it because he was a nice guy. In your eyes this may be seen as chivalry but I'd bet you a whole lot o' money that he didn't see it that way.
This might be the reason for all the seeming negativity in this thread? If so its kinda sad that so many of us are getting so bent out of shape over so small a thing. Thats the reason for this forum no? To have debates about interesting topics and not get bent out of shape?
I don't know, just seems like people are getting really angry about this. Which is somewhat amusing because we are talking about being courteous to people. Come on folks, relax a bit. :P
