Whatever Happened to Wednesday’s: Gentlemen
Nov 10, 2009 DUH, Ranteriffic, Relationships, Sex, Whatever Happened to? Wednesdays, Wicked Wisdoms, bitch
Welcome to “Whatever Happened to Wednesday’s”!
Today we are gonna talk about gentleman … or lack thereof …
Definition of Gentleman: A well-mannered and considerate man with high standards of proper behavior.
Proper behavior does not consist of the following:
Ass smacking, grabbing, or touching of any kind in a public setting. Especially when that public setting is not of a social nature. Even more especially if it is not asked for.
Referring to a lady as a bitch, slut, skank, ma, breezy, piece of ass.
Ditching a lady after making plans. (And when I say ditching, I mean lying and saying you aren’t feeling well so that you can really go out the bar with your boys.)
Attempting to show out in front of others by not so subtly disrespecting her in front of others to look cool. (i.e. panty swinging or ass grabbing)
Staking claim on a lady (“Get away from my woman” “Leave my woman alone” “That is my woman.”) when she is in fact NOT yours to stake claim upon. i.e. pee all over.
Forgetting to compliment a lady just because she is confident within her own skin. Ladies deserve frequent compliments on their awesome beauty on a regular basis.
Flirting with another lady in front of the lady you are courting.
Talking about your ex. A gentleman picks the right conversation to have ONE TIME about said ex. Not EVERY conversation unless the lady brings it up.
Proper behavior DOES IN FACT INCLUDE the following:
Opening a door for a lady. NOT waiting for HER to open it for YOU.
Walking side by side with her, not trying to out walk her or lag behind to grab her ass or even stare at it. ON PURPOSE.
Being a MAN of your word.
Paying for dinner, even when she tries to insist that she has got it.
Asking a lady out on a proper date. Not dinner at her house, with sex the ultimate motivation for the dinner suggested.
Bringing a lady flowers, or some other inexpensive and thoughtful gesture (i.e. love note, favorite chocolate or bottle of wine) on said date and not because you are in trouble.
Appreciating sex, not expecting sex and having the sex be the entire premise of every conversation that you have with a lady.
Just motherfucking saying.
What’s your most annoying habit?
What are your favorite sayings?
Do you talk to yourself?
Would you rather die in a blaze of glory or peacefully in your sleep?

OHMYFUCKINGGOD.
I have been wondering for quite awhile now what happened to gentleman. Then I met the bf, and I learned there’s still at least ONE out there.
Really though? I think women are half the reason why there are so few true gentlemen left. They stick with a guy even after they prove that they’re lazy, inconsiderate, and disrespectful, and continue to fuck said douchebag. No wonder guys have gotten so lazy when it comes to how they treat women– we’ve made it ok.
Case in point: tonight, at work, I had tons of boxes to take out to my car so I took one load out at break. 3 different guys stopped to laugh as I was struggling with it before one (who has already proven his douchebag status despite his gentlemanly gesture) finally carried them out for me.
Then one of the douchebags wondered why I was being such a bitch to him. I almost told him that continuing to be such an inconsiderate dick would only attract females like.. his girlfriend.
Glad I found the bf when I did. Cause I had almost completely stopped believing in gentlemen.

Most annoying habit: I’ll have to ask Keith.
Favorite sayings: I like to sing “asshole” like an opera singer. I often sing a lyric in my day, “Boy you must be Jamaican, because ju makin’ me crazy!”
I talk to myself all the time.
Die peacefully.
As for buying flowers, I’ve been with Keith for nearly 13 years. I’ve received flowers a handful of times. Now, I just buy paper versions for myself. Sometimes, ya just don’t feel like waiting on a man to make you feel special that way.

Um yup. The lack of gentlmanly behaviors is why I do not find myself going to the trouble of having dates anymore. These men I keep meeting are lazy. They just want to get to the sex, so they say they want to take me out but then it becomes apparent that “take you out” means “take you to my bed” no and no. Bye.
There’s a guy that I want to fuck so badly it hurts and I have to see him on a regular basis and each time I do, my girl bits are like HELLOOOOOOOOO but I won’t because he is too lazy to court me. But dammitalltohell I want him.
Most annoying habit? I have no annoying habits. I’m perfect can’t you see?
I really like “dammit all to hell” heh.
All the time. I have entire conversations with myself. It’s not crazy, it’s quirky.
I’d much rather go out in my sleep. Yea… I actually used to have anxiety about going to sleep and not waking up. I hope that particular bit of crazy doesn’t resurface.

I would have to consider Dan a gentleman. Yes, he does some of those naughty things, like public ass grabbing, but I LIKE IT! LMFAO And the ex thing, considering it’s so fresh with us, it’s discussed sometimes. He hurts because of some of the shit she did and I like to know how he feels. We can be honest with eachother like that. We were from the very beginning after he got caught lying to me. He knows I won’t take no shit. (relationships are different than dating in that way). He is also a gentleman though, in the sense that he holds doors, not only for me, but for others. Not the car door too much, unless I’m struggling to get out. But he always gets in and adjusts the seat back for me. For being an inch shorter, he sits like 4 inches closer to the wheel, christ. And we’ll walk together, with me on his arm. Even if we’re at Walmart. <3 And we do sometimes argue about who has the 'bill' at mcdonalds LMAO. And I have never seen him disrespect a woman (with the exception of me one time when we were arguing and I called him the fuck out in front of a crowd of people and basically publically humilated him for being a dick headed man slut.) Other than that, we trash talk random individuals. We are equal opportunity when it comes to people watching. Even when the bitch was rude to him at the clinic, I was the one that pushed him to report her ass because it was basically against the code of ethics given her employment status.
I'll ask Dan later about my most annoying habit. LOL His HAS to be the OCD cleaning. I had nothing wrong with putting the trash out on the porch yesterday for Caleb to take out when he got home. it was forgotten between the ER and bedtime the night before. Anyway, it was like 2 hours and Dan couldn't just leave it. He took it out himself LOL
'slow your roll' or 'put ur brakes on'- Dan started it, so it's a regular thing in our house with the kids
I talk to myself all the damn time. Sometimes Dan catches me and he'll holler that he didn't hear me from the next room LOL Usually I am ranting and swearing, so nobody needs to hear it but me!
I'd rather die in my sleep. Better for ME, maybe not so much for my family who would then want an autopsy though. heh.

I love that my husband treats me like a lady, and not a toy. And I don’t care what ANYONE says. He’s not just sweet because he wants sex (believe me, he’s not “sweet” when he wants sex). I stick firmly by the knowledge that sex is not his ultimate goal in any of our activities.
1. I always feel I need to prove my point, to the point of actually making other people feel dumb. Walter hates it.
2. “Are you serious?”, “WTF?”, and I say ‘wicked’ a LOT.
3. Only sometimes, when I’m freaking out. Wait. Make that all the time, then.
4. Peacefully in my sleep. Call me a coward, but I don’t wanna know it’s happening when I’m going.

What’s your most annoying habit? Smoking. Talking too much.
What are your favorite sayings? Seek Sunshine. To the moon and back, baby!
Do you talk to yourself? mmm….yes.
Would you rather die in a blaze of glory or peacefully in your sleep? makes no difference to me.

I love you. The end.

I still do all of these things. I was not raised to do this. I thought highly of men who did and sought to make myself the best me possible. If the woman you are with does not deserve these things, you should be with a better woman.
My most annoying habit is being sedentary.
I like “pretend to be good always and even god will be fooled.”
I talk to myself because I think fast enough to not know how I will respond. That and we get along so well I can hardly believe it.
These days I’d prefer peacefully in my sleep.
