Gentle Person

I don’t understand this continuing idea of “gentlemen” as men and woman are equal, the concept of the “gentlemen” is, surely, redundant. Perhaps, there should be a new term “gentleperson” where girls can open doors and pay for dinner and buy flowers for boys, 50% of the time.

But there is such strength in the sisterhood now a days, so much more than the brotherhood, that that would never happen. Girl's would expect equality and for men to be gentlemen as well, with no sense of contradiction.

And, you know, I get it. I understand. That is what happens when the power shifts, when the less powerful become more powerful. That is human nature.
