u aint no lady either,

i open doors for anyone, male or female.. guess im just a nice guy

and your back doors

I personally go for the more chivalrous and gender neutral "After you".

and if they walk through without saying 'thank you' give em a swift kick up the @rris

Perfect i think you have cracked it ,i will say that in future ty :-)

Still you are making the action of opening the door in the first place which might not be correct

I always open doors but anyone not saying thankyou makes me seeeth.

The 'after you' thing seems to be appreciatedl with orgasms too.

Me too. What really annoys me is when you hold a door open for a bird and she doesnt even say anything as if your expected to do that. Men usually at least give you the 'head nod'.

P.S you know what the head nod is and its nothing to do with buggery.

I, too, am an "after you" chap. However, if they fail to thank me, I say it for them, very loudly, with a glare. To see their faces, you would have thought I had Susan**s head and John Terry's d1ck.

yeh i cant resist saying "yeh thanks!" loudly if i dnt get a recognition for my efforts.

I always open doors for ladies, but if I don't get an acknowledgement, which is very rude , I say in a loud voice "Don't mention it" I usually get a look suggesting I have flashed at them.

I love it and long may it continue.

I will never walk through a door before a lady period.

You don't have to say ladies first. They all know why you are letting them go first. Sometimes I'll get the odd, "no after you" from the woman I am waiting for to which my reply is that there is no way I'm going through the door before them.

Nevermind equality, I think all women like a man to let them through first.

what's a bird's period got to do with it?

Dave Edwards you say "they all know why you are letting them go first"

I was just wondering what you mean by that? i still feel their are some wimmin out there who might not think its very pc to open the door and let them go first.I agree with you though i think they like having the door opened for them

they like avin their back door kicked in for them...

You know come on, I'm a man they are a woman and I'm letting them through in the age old tradition. I do think though that whether it was tradition or not I'd still do it.

As for wimmin, I'm not interested in that nonsense. Men are men and women are women as far as I'm concerned. When I was young I went out with a girl who considered herself a feminist. He car broke down and she couldn't start it again. She asked me to do something about it. I hadn't even had a lesson to learn how to drive let alone studied car mechanics. I explained that I didnt know what to do. Her response was you are a man aren't you?

Maybe me always letting women through first is a selfish thing too. I guess I like being known as a gentleman amongst the women I know. Can come in handy sometimes!

Good on you DE :-)

I agree with your reply dave edwards, I pull open doors for any women, even grannies too

but yes had the odd woman passing by without saying a thanks but I don't say anything, I don't lower myself

but as to opening doors to the ladies I'd sh@g, i give a 10% bigger smile :)

...................................................................

Now you are talking my language! Always get the smile in when you have the chance!

I like holding doors open for people ages away. Funny making them sprint just so they don't leave me waiting there.

oh aye dave, but there's probably about 750 women at my work and plenty i'd give a bigger smile to, but I just don't know how to break the ice, well with the women I see once in a blue moon in an entirely differently department

ken whit ah mean?

You've been watching the limmy show

The thing is that women talk, once you are known as the sort of man who is considerate etc it's all good publicity.

not many men do this nowadays they all rude and arrogant where i come from

I hold doors open for anyone to be honest, common courtesy. I save the creepy smile for the ladies though.

indeed

but again, you see a woman you really wanna sh@g, but you only cross her in the corridor

how can I stop and talk without looking like a numpty? thing is, you see, the people walking by me will be the every day types, knowing that am trying to make a move

Spill a drink on her then make your move. You have to be smooth to pull this off though.

Where you from cakes?

just trip in front of her punter , let her help u up , then your in :)

so I'm gonna to walk about the work with a cup of water in my hands for the next 4 weeks, in the hope I cross her and accidently spill my water over her?

daley im from oxford and u ?

ladycakes69 04 Feb 20:52

She'll think, "he's no man" mind the office i'm in, full of w@nkers and that, she'll prolly be attracted to some of the w@nkers, though I dunno for sure

Smooth? More like super cool mother f**ker to pull that one off!!!

Hard at work, if you've had eyes contact from a girl previous, them move onto smile next time. If she smiles back then say hi the time after that, if she is returning then it might not be a guarantee of anything , but at least you aren't being shunned. Once you are on saying hi terms you can take it from there in your own style.

yep thats very true women , don't like a nice guy , we like someone who is rude , mean arrogant and all that lol , only messing some do go for sweet guys , try ur luck you never know

The ONLY doors any men should be opening are the "back doors" imo and a thank you is always nice

Make it hot coffee. That way she'll never forget your face. :^0

lol bonviv deary me

Cakes - I'm from Darlo

wherever that is daley :)

I know LC but couldnt belive that noone had brought that one up already! this is chit chat after all !

true Lady, but you can be a bit of both at the same time. I'm always a gentleman with women, but I'm also known as someone who doesn't take sh!t generally. I walk around like I'm the alpha male. I know women at work look.

Think when you read in Cosmopolitan that a woman liked a man to impress her and get her wet you may have misunderstood.

if i mention back doors i get shouted at on here , apparently a lady should not talk about that sort of thing on here !! rude ay

I find ig im in the smoke that noone seems to thank anyone for doors or otherwise though in say Manchester or Leeds i think most birds will give a grudging nod of appreciation..especially when i give them my rakish smile.

Having sad all that blokes are FAR more polite than birds and would be rare for a bloke not to acknowledge i think

erm.....I've had 45+ women that i've never met saying hi to me in the corridor, I say Hi back

but I found it surreal

are they just wanting a bit of c0ck?

lmao punter u don't strike me as shy

punter, do they have works drinks etc where you might meet them to talk to?

ladycakes69 04 Feb 21:03
lmao punter u don't strike me as shy

not to women in my department and nearby

but random female staff from other departments, where theres eyes everywhere, it's never a quiet corridor

my corridor is busy because the shop and deli is there, and the girls behind the counter make comments and that

DaveEdwards 04 Feb 21:04
punter, do they have works drinks etc where you might meet them to talk to?

nope, office is far too big for that, works drinks are separated between departments

funnily enough, I walk to work, and rarely I start at 7am, but when I do, there's a park bench 5 mins walk away from work, and SHE walked past it, believe me!

she must be a regular 7am start worker, when am normally 8.30am

A lot depends on the rules where you work. Some places you can et in trouble for commenting on peoples appearance etc, but you could just pay a compliment to a woman you are interested in. Tell her she looks good.

get in trouble ^^

PF

Why or how on earth could 45 women say "hi" to a stranger? can only think you work either in the media or the public sector (massively different i know but still)?
Must be hell be hell on earth as whenever you wanted to move in on a bird everyone would spot the manouvre..probs easier to just walk around with your c0ck out.

Bonviv is 100% correct, there are people watching others constantly just for a bit of gossip. Sad

Bonviv, women that are 45 and over in agewise, whilst am 30

bonviv

is it public sector, not just public sector, it's civil service sector, and yes gossip is rife

she'll have had that comment before, I need to be different

I do have the advantage that she does cross the bench I like to have my first cigarette on at 6.55am, but if I start doing it on a regular basis, I might scare her

Ah i'm with you now PF,had this idea of hordes of birds smiling and saying hello!

They most lkely se you as a young gigalo

Hardly ever venture into the office thank god,but i can imagine the gossip mongering is a bit suffocating in those huge open plan office type places

look, the point is not having an angle here I think. If she knows you are interested and she is interested herself then you have a chance to move forwards.

If a woman I'm attracted to pays me a compliment I hold it in higher regard than from someone I'm not interested in. If you know what I mean. If she likes you paying her a compliment will work in your favour. If not, move on.

I find it hard to believe that in this day and age we shoud be discussing whether a man should hold open a door for a lady. Surely it is just a case of good manners? You should always hold a door open for a member of the fairer sex. That way as she walks through the open doorway you can crouch down close to her arris, get an eyefull and inhale the aroma of a little bit of natures honey.

what kind of a compliment though daveedwards?

Larry :^0

I mean what kind of compliments do you get from women?

Thats just what it's like where I work. There is a woman who watches my every move. Whenever I'm talking to a woman at work I can see her watching out of the corner of my eye.

anf for gods sakes punter just go talk to her, whats gonna happen , who cares . be spontanoeus and grab her and snog her , shock the hell out of her , women like that :)

bonviv..............it's the public sector...it's very open plan, everyone are equals, well HMRC anyway they always make the lead

and a possible resignation at the office in the morning please

I agree with ladycakes and if you do it with a mad gleam in your eye as you say to her, "you're my puppy tonight" it will knock her bandy.

On how I dress, haircut etc, but other stuff about too, passing on compliments second hand from other women who have said they fancy me. It's easy for them to pass this sort of stuff on. If they didn't think I was worthy I'd never here this stuff.

I get that too, and I've been sexually harassed by a munter there too, very unfair
