This is what I said.


'This is a silly thread. Would you stop to help?
Yes, I might. But not necessarily, depending on the situation.'


Definitely not what Muddy is suggesting.
Perhaps Muddy will check the facts in future instead of putting words in my mouth.

It usually does the trick. If you're half dead lying on the side of the road not many will stop.

However if my perception was mistaken i apologise.
and indeed am glad to be mistaken .

Is this just a sign of the times or are men getting less chivalrous?
I am fortunate in being married to a courteous gentlemanly man .
My sons too are mannerly towards women .

Otherwise i would think that chivalry is dead.
Here in the Pacific Northwest, USA, I encounter chivalry when I am out and about. Men and women open doors for others and are very kind.

I've met some very nice and once in a while very rude people online!

Online boorish people dont feel they need to stick to the same conventions as a face to face encounter when they may well reap the consequences of their rudeness.

That's very true. We on the Internet are able to hide (if so inclined) to a certain extent.

Hopefully, I remain the same in real life.
Sense of humour and never rude.
No point in upsetting people anyway ... I notice how bad behaviour will be repaid.

In other words we reap what we sow
