Chivalry died on the battlefields of Europe in the 15th century, good manners on the other hand are never out of style :-)

I deliberately cultivate a slightly larger than life image because it's good for business. Having slightly better manners than those around you and leaping to help people without being asked is part of that. A hat is also a useful prop.

I've not had an adverse response in 20 years.
