I put it down to how one is raised David children are like sponges absorbing as little or as much as one is taught.

Women have been subjected to so much turmoil through centuries perhaps that is the reason for many now taking the opportunity to do it alone and their way! This is not to say there are men out there who have endured the same.

My partner and I open the door for each other, hold the lift doors for other people, give up our seats on public transport and allow others to go head of us in a busy queue. We are never troubled if a thank you does come to mind, just puzzled by their expression when we thank them!
