ALSO:
A gentleman says “please” and “thank you.”
A gentleman is never rude to servers, bartenders, or anyone else for that matter.
A gentleman keeps his word and a secret.
A gentleman pays attention to details.
A gentleman is a jack of all trades.
A gentleman knows how to do things. He’s the guy people look to in an emergency, whether it’s a natural disaster or a social one. A gentleman is prepared to answer questions and if he doesn’t know the answer, he knows where to find it. He is confident and socially adroit, able to handle any situation that life throws at him.
It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

Sadly soon to be an endangered species. Bob
Absolutely.
well i am at least 99% no suit for me
You have to be careful. If you hold the door for a woman these days, you might get an ear full from a lib.

It is getting harder and harder to practice the rules of gentlemanly behavior in todays world!
Masculinity is sadly being frowned upon. Sadly, The Duke and The Marlboro Man are dead, and last I heard....the next 007 is a girl 😮
I hold the door for anyone. They can gripe all they want.
I don't consider myself a gentleman but I do all those things except send letters, but then I don't send text messages either.
Its the way I was raised.
Am I supposed to write letters to my wife?
Try it. I would bet she'll appreciate it.....particularly if you profess your undying love! She'll probably save it forever.
Believe it or not you write letters, every time you post GBGD.
Boys/Girls: I think he loves us ! 😆😆
I don't hold the door because they're a lady,
I do it because I'm a gentleman.
I do it so I can watch their butt as they go by.............
Hillbille,
A "gentleman" would NEVER admit that, even if it's probably true.😉
I have to take exception with a couple of these "requirements", and add one glaring omission.
Well groomed, and impeccable taste are pretty subjective. Humility should be at the top of the list because a gentleman doesn't crave, or even want recognition, for doing the things that make him a gentleman.
JMHO
Hillbille, if a man says he doesn't check out women's butts, he is either lying, dying, dead or gay!! 😁
When the day comes when T&A doesn't grab attention, they will be shoveling dirt in my face !!! 😆
Well Groomed = I have lived my entire life in blue jeans, well since about 10 years old. So to me - jeans and a flannel shirt are just fine ! 😎
You just want to slap them upside of the head:
