In defence of Manliness

This review of the book Being a Man is a good read, concurring with the author's idea that male chivalry can exist without the guys being chauvinistic. I stand by that at least - the females who don't fancy the idea can of course, reject the gesture. It can be irritating though, when I offer help to some female out of human kindness and it is regarded as an unwanted act of manly gesture. The women can likewise be big-hearted and generous too, and it's gratifying to see these gestures from the ladies.
