    Like your sig little lady?

    I was going into a builders yard today with my daughter. She automatically held the door open for a burly builder entering. I high-fived myself at her manners, didn't cross my mind whether it was a male or female.

    What about my sig?? (It's not really mine, it's garfields)
    How'd you know I'm little?
    Kudos to your kid.

    I have a very fair system.

    Very good looking girl     - hold the door open though shes a good 30ft away.
    Complete random stranger within 8ft - i'l push the door open & release with the intent that the person will catch it etc. Im not holding the door open till they get to the door, that looks dumb.
    Complete random stranger who is within 4ft - i will hold the door open.
    Ugly bird - does not compute. ERROR standby..
    Fatty - does not compute. ERROR standby.. Open both doors and GTF out of the way.

    I hold the door for people. Most times I get a smile and a 'thanks'. Doesn't kill me when I don't.

    Just hold it open.

    Looking for a reward demeans the whole, gentlemanly, point of it.

    When I was in America and you held the door for someone they would almost want to shake your hand

    Have found that in London also, well not so much a shake your hand, but always a smile and a thank you.

    I held a door open recently for a guy about 20ft away. Didn't realise he was limping and then he started hopping on his good leg to get to the door quicker. :o
