There seems to be a recurring conversation regarding Chivalry as a concept, the viability of it and the desireability of it. There are even 'movements' dedicated to resuscitating this travesty of human behaviour. I can see it being a positive from a female standpoint...but is it good for men?
Roissy...er...sorry...Heartiste is predictably disdainful of the idea as the tingle-killer it is, AskMen almost - but not quite - gets it, the folks at The Atlantic are predictably supportive as is ol' Hugo and the girls at GoodMenProject...and oddly for the exact same reasons I personally am against the idea.

I think that sort of makes my views known on the subject
EDIT: I was going through the archives and I came axross this old advertisement for Free Love, and I thought it might go good with the Chivalry thing. Enjoy!
