Does being a gentleman actually matter to a woman?
486865
In my opinion I would like to say three things:\n\n1. All people are different what may matter to one woman may not matter as much to another. \n\n2. To me, yes, it does make a difference. It makes a bigger impression. It shows me not only how much they care about me and our relationship but it can also show how well someone may care for themself.\n\nNow to add something that made me smile. \n\nWhen I read your question, I couldn't help but smile because I was glad it was asked.

As I get older my view on this changes somewhat! I don't think that there is any issue of whether this is "manly" or not. Wanting to look your best or caring about your appearance is not something that women only care about, and it doesn't make a man "not manly."\n\nI think that some cosmetic surgery might be helpful to people. But I also think that some cosmetic surgery is done out of a belief that it will "cure" problems a person has or it will make them feel better about themselves. This is often not the result, as the problem isn't how people look but how they think and judge themselves and their worth.

In business yes it is somewhat true you should not offer your hand unless or until she offer hers.\n\nBut, in life it is nice if a gentle man to instead of waiting for the lady to.\n\nThat's what that always happen.

Emotionally weak is hard to put up with, but so is the typical stoic, show-no-emotions type of guy. A nice balance is the best. Physical weakness, it matters to some girls, but not to others. It really just depends on the woman, you know?

Just be you. I dont think that us ladies give guys enough credit as far as being able to see through fake or phonyness. But while being yourself, notice things that are important to him or that interest him. You can only learn what these things are by talking and interacting with them. Good Luck

Personally, for me, it depends on the woman in question....but if she is under 40 and in reasonable shape and can carry herself well anyway, I don't mind it.  It can be attractive on the right lady, and yet it can also be a bit less than classy, depends on the lady doing it, does she do it well, go overboard, etc?\n\nAs far as my attitude towards her, it really doesn't change things any more than any other attempt that women use to look nice, like makeup, wearing a dress/nylons versus pants, showing bare legs (where are the folks whining about short shorts and exposed butt crack, huh?), piercings, and so on...\n\nOnly thing that really turns me away are scars and tattoos, and those only if they are fairly massive (to the point of being disfiguring).\n\nBut then again, I am one of those...*lol*....I try to be a gentleman out in public, meaning if I am close enough to talk to a woman, I keep my eyes on her face as much as possible, duh...it's called self-control and manners, and some guys could use that.\n\nBecause men can be out of control skanks too, you know?  Especially down south with the bare-chest thing....ughhh...

Coming from a mans point of view, if he's really into you and respects you it won't matter. also he may be glad you are inexperienced as you wouldn't know if he was any good or not!

great question and the trouble is you're trying to understand it from a guy's standpoint so you have no chance.  it's definitely down to what the girls here have been saying that they just feel uncomfortable with it and there is also a sense of predictability in treating a woman too nice. I'm single but cool with it as I know the key to all of this is being who you really are and not trying so hard to impress.  concentrate more on what makes you happy in life and the right girl will be attracted to that. don't try and make others happy as you'll lose sight of yourself

Well, I'm about as far from manly as it gets...and I've never had any trouble getting a man. I think (or I'd like to think) that men like women who are mostly feminine, but intelligent and strong also, with being manly. Right? ;-)

A Lady or a Gentleman isn't easily defined by a short list of actions but rather by an overall air. A person, who maintains their dignity without making others feel less dignified, who offers a hand in generosity, without making the recipient feel beholden. Who has proper manners but not so proper as to make others feel inadequate.\n\nA person who carries themselves with a quiet grace and dignity.\n\nYes there are still many of them out their. I do not consider myself one in that I am frankly a little too crass and too aggressive in my ways but I consider it an ideal up to which I try to succeed

Yes, I always try and help a lady in need. I have my interest in my lady only, so I am not looking at anything other than being a better person and helping someone. I also help guys in need as I do not believe that gender should be a deciding factor in who needs help and who don't.

A gentleman is a person who treats everyone with respect no matter who they are. That is what I aim to achieve anyway.

Men love respect. Maybe not all women can do that, but men love it, and whaooooo, a romantic woman will do.

nope not important...in fact, if she were i might get suspicios...kidding. I mean the same standard does not seem to apply to males so I dont see why it should apply to females.

Yes there are decent men out there....love us never having to say you're sorry, because if you love someone, you wouldn't hurt them in the first place....a women's worth is so high, they are the life bringer into this world.........treating a lady is easy... if you truly love them....IT comes so naturally...

Yes.  To me it does matter.  It doesn't matter because of how much they make or status or anything like that.  With my profession it is hard to date certain people.  On the same note, some guys don't want to date me because of my profession.  So, it does matter.
