Wasn't sure whether to put this here or in members lounge so be free to move it.
Chivalry. Where did it go? Why did it go? I have asked myself that forever. Sometimes I wish I could go back to the days when men were romanic.
Than, I read this on a site and I now see why chivalry has died:
The mystery of love has been lost in the sexual revolution that substitutes "safe sex" for the adventure of romance. When women are taught to resent masculinity, chivalry is stifled. When chastity is not the norm, men and women cannot idealize or respect each other. When educators assume that boys and girls must be "sexually active" rather than gentlemen and ladies, ideals such as honor evaporate. Instead of romance, which leads to the wonderful vision of the true, the good, and the beautiful incarnate in the beloved, we are left with only the various forms of lust advertised as "sexual liberation." Without chivalry, love loses its heart, and men and women become less than human.
Amen to that! Our society has created standards which, have caused us to be robots rather than humans with souls.
Sex has become an activity rather than an expression of love. Men do not act with chivalry because women will "give it away for free". Class, grace and manners are qualities just as hard to find in a woman as in a man.
That's my two cents.
