Well women have to let men down easily because some men can snap on them if they're mean about it. There have even been women who were shot for rejecting a man. I honestly can't blame a woman for being cautious since a lot of men can't handle rejection all that well.
I'd rather a girl did mention it. I'd feel more relaxed then as if we carry on a reasonable conversation she'd know i'm not trying to hit on her. I just don't want a woman to think i'm trying it on her if it's just an innocent conversation.
I know girls are constantly approached in a lot of cases but not every guy is trying it on.
Yeah, me too. I'd rather women mention that they have boyfriends, especially if they do have boyfriends. To me, a red flag would be when she has a boyfriend and yet is flirting with me and I find out some other way (Like her boyfriend catches her flirting with me, awkward?). I don't care if she's attracted to me or not. If she'd cheat on him, then she'd likely cheat on me too.
I've heard about this happening from other people too.
You've heard of women literally screaming at men for holding doors? Whom? When?
You do realize the person who said a woman screamed at him for this came back and said nobody ever actually screamed at him, right? I'm not coming down on this particular dude, I think he was just being facetious and realized afterward how it sounded, BUT yeah...didn't actually happen, per the person's own admission.
I've been on the planet Earth for just shy of 49 years. I have never once in that time of many doors and many women and many men and many polite gestures, heard ANYBODY scream at ANYONE else for holding a door. Or even snapped or made any untoward ZOMG #FEMINISM comment at all.
I get that I'm a sample size of one, but dang. How did I manage to avoid this all-too-common occurrence? I mean what were the odds?
Hahah hahaha dinner theater! Bravo! A rehash of personal anecdotes from one of my favorite contributors! And now Nurse Ratchet please ask the cashier for help deciding which tampons your "girlfriend" should use. That's quite believeable as well

Oh yeah, the screaming and then the remark. OR maybe she screamed the remark. But I did read that post where he said he exaggerated (on another thread).
This personally never happened to me. I reiterate that the worst reaction I got from a woman that I held the door open for was no acknowledgement. But the things I've seen in my life are way more out there and improbable than a woman screaming at a man for holding the door open. Heck, if a man can shoot/stab a woman for rejecting him, even nicely, then I could believe a woman would scream at a man for holding the door open for her.
