Current Events > I told two women off and they were so confused and embarrassed.

(+) Yeah! (+)

My boyfriend and I were going to a restaurant and hes broken a bone in his foot and is walking with crutches so I held one of the two doors open for him.

Two women who were leaving the restaurant at the same time seemed to think I held the door open for them and tried to squeeze past my boyfriend who were struggling forward with his crutches. So I turned to the women and said Im holding the door for him, not for you and they started blushing and looked like deer caught in the headlights.

So straight guys, stop letting women walk all over you cause it teach them bad behaviour

Yes, telling off people trying squeeze past someone who is visibly injured is making an ass of yourself. You should also value the personal opinion people you will likely never see or hear from again have of you.

My thought was, TC could easily have held the door for both. Even if not your intention, there was no point of calling them out on it. Smh.

Well, on the one hand, if I'm opening the door for someone, I don't mind if someone else steps through

On the other hand, if someones on crutches, it's rude to barge in past them.

On the other other hand, I hold open the door for my girlfriend and for my friends, even when they aren't impaired.

Lots of layers here, my instinct is to assume everyone was an ass but idk

Sounds like the attitude of someone who regularly makes an ass of themselves publicly

that's society, though. hideous people will put you in a position where you have to be a little rude. they do it because they know decent people would rather not.

if you didn't tell them off this time, what would you say to the next people they tried to walk around? that kind of thing.

Maybe, I'd of had to see it. They might have not been paying attention and didnt notice the guy on crutches.

Even worse case scenario they were being rude, going off on strangers for minor acts of rudeness makes you look like an ass. Just roll your eyes and go about your day

I would gladly have kept holding the door open for them if they had waited their turn but the way they acted toward a visibly injured person put me off hard and is what made me call them out on their behaviour. It is basic social decency that you show consideration in situations like these and dont try to force your way past someone who is struggling to walk.

I agree. But you could have misread it. They may not have been trying to be rude. And if they were it's not really worth going off on a stranger.

Best case scenario you went off on a couple of rude ladies who are so self absorbed they've completely forgotten it 5 mins later. Worst case scenario you went off on a couple of ladies who just made an awkward mistake.

Either way there's really no upside.

Uh no, he was in the right.

Inconsiderate bitches didn't bother to think past their own bubble to realize someone injured was already using the door...
They jumped to the conclusion that the door was being held for them just because the person holding it was male.

Gay men don't do chivalry.
We LAUGH at chivalry, because in this century it's unnecessary and basically just bitch privilege.

Yeah honestly chivalry is pretty dumb at this point. I still follow some of it like holding doors for women, but that is mostly because of how I was raised.

Lot of women anymore don't even want it anyway. They are like I don't need you to hold the door.

I... don't understand the relevance of this statement in regards to the story.

That said, yeah they should have the sense to let someone on crutches go first.

Good job TC.

I hold the door for everyone.
