I wanted to clip this days ago but time and work caught up to me. I thought it was hysterical that chivalry was invented to stop men’s natural impulses. The important part of this clip is that men walked up the stairs first, preventing them from staring up a woman’s skirt.

What do you do now? I always look straight ahead but it’s an interesting question. Post your responses in the dofollow comments section.

I chuckle inwardly. I once took a door of some antebellum mansion in the Deep South. When the tour guide lead us up the grand staircase, she told us to proceed up the stairs like society people did in 1860 – men first, ladies second. This wasn’t because men were considered superior, she explained, it was to prevent randy males from trying to look up the ladies’ hoop dresses. Maybe chivalry is a code women subconsciously made us adapt to protect them from male sexual aggressiveness. Hmmmm. There’s a topic for some researcher.
