Well as for the Duke, I believe duke might refer to duking it out so if that is your manly man then fine but sometimes the man likes to duke it out withe the spouse then he's a louse. On the other hand the sensitive man might not really be that self involved he may actually not believe in killing innocent women, children, and old men as collateral damage while he's out killing all the young men to accomplish a goal that isn't even real!!!

You girls wanted to be in charge and more like men,well you finally got your wish.Thats why we treat you about like another guy except for the apparent reasons! It is hard to be protective of someone when they are independent and agressive,which is just what you girls are now days.By the way,most guys would be your knight in shining armor if given the chance.

Thanks Tom,Now I know I'll have to troll for dates at my local senior center. Maybe some of the guys will want a younger woman?

I'm an older woman. I never wanted a John Wayne. I wanted a man to share my life, not rule my life. Value given for value received. Obviously I don't bother with that anymore because there is no share in marriage that I have seen. It has been gimmy on one side and take on the other. It wasn't very intellectually stimulating either. Must have married the wrong ones but they were the ones available around here. No romance left in me. I have my doubt that it exists for average looking, intelligent women. Maybe for the beauties, the trophy wives who will do almost anything for money.

Donald Starling is correct. If chivalry is dead, we have no one to blame but ourselves, ladies. When I was a HS teacher, I couldn't believe how the young girls tolerated young men commenting on their bodies. I am still appalled that any man would use profanity in the presence of ladies he does not know well. The lack of respect that women get is because they allow it. It should start with their Mothers. No man (or woman for that matter) is born knowing how to treat women with respect. This idea is not outdated; it's just lost. We tolerate it as though there is nothing we can do. Ladies, the next time you approach a door with your guy, stop as though it's a supermarket door and you're waiting for it to open on it's own, then give him a knowing smile. Or wait outside of the car when he picks you up. When he finds himself sitting alone in the driver's seat as you wait patiently outside a few times, he will begin to get in the habit. Be patient. It's a learning process. Don't make demands; no words are needed. If he has an ounce of politeness in him, he won't say anything either. If he belittles you, find a new guy. Of course, for this to work and make sense, you need to act like a lady who is deserving of such treatment. My guy is awesome. He opens every door and never raises his voice to me in public. (He knows that will be his ass in private if he does! hahaha)
