Where have all the gentlemen gone?

Oh for the fun of bus rides. Today we got on the bus, and of course it has to be almost full! So we were stuck standing for a while. Which generally isn't that bad if the bus isn't packed full like a can of sardines. While standing there we began to wonder where all the gentlemen have gone. Most of the people sitting towards the front of the bus where we were standing were guys. Why is it that nowadays guys do not automatically offer their seats to women? Are we too old fashioned? Is it too much to ask for what were once common courtesies? Is it too much to want guys to offer us their seats, or for them to open doors for us? I'm sure there are many other women out there who feel the same. And for all the gentlemen out there who actually do offer their seats and open doors we thank you and hope you continue to do so!

So, besides the crammed bus, guys not offering us seats, and almost falling down for lack of balance while the bus went over the curb.... today was not that bad.
