Cute.You know what a gentleman is, right?
It's a man who never forgets a lady's birthday, but doesn't remember how old she is.

Oh, please don't. If you do, USMB would pop up on the first page of Dante's and 52ndstreet's morning Google searches.Poor Radioman......
BTW, I agree about Ollie, Jeremy, Dr. House, DiveCon.....Sheldon is also a gentleman.....the list of men who are not would be much, much shorter.
If I start calling everyone cock-gobbling midgets, would I be able to reverse this decision?
I know. But, acceptance is the first step toward change, they say.Oh, please don't. If you do, USMB would pop up on the first page of Dante's and 52ndstreet's morning Google searches.If I start calling everyone cock-gobbling midgets, would I be able to reverse this decision?

If you're going to go rdeaning, try learning your vocabulary words for the week.As some of you might already be aware, the subject of being a gentlemen came up in a recent thread- specifically the contrast between the 1st and 2nd-wavers who believed in equality, responsibility, and independence and the modern neo-gentlemen who, much like those same groups who took over the Coloured Civil Rights movement, seek to invert, rather than abolish, the historical system of exploitation and socio-economic and political inequality.
Or do you just play one on T.V.?
Gentleman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe term gentleman (from Latin gentilis, belonging to a race or "gens", and "man", cognate with the French word gentilhomme, the Spanish gentilhombre and the Italian gentil uomo or gentiluomo), in its original and strict signification, denoted a man of good family, analogous to the Latin generosus (its invariable translation in English-Latin documents). In this sense the word equates with the French gentilhomme (nobleman), which latter term was in Great Britain long confined to the peerage. The term "gentry" (from the Old French genterise for gentelise) has much of the social class significance of the French noblesse or of the German Adel, but without the strict technical requirements of those traditions (such as quarters of nobility). This was what the rebels under John Ball in the 14th century meant when they repeated:John Selden in Titles of Honour (1614), discussing the title "gentleman", speaks of "our English use of it" as "convertible with nobilis" (an ambiguous word, like 'noble' meaning elevated either by rank or by personal qualities) and describes in connection with it the forms of ennobling in various European countries.
To a degree, "gentleman" signified a man with an income derived from property, a legacy or some other source, and was thus independently wealthy and did not need to work. The term was particularly used of those who could not claim nobility or even the rank of esquire.
Kinda the opposite of equality...

I MUST be a gentleman. They allow me to drink in this bar!
I thought by law, all UK men were required to have fine manners or else they could no longer sport that accent?

Because he will tell you that Oxford English has no accent. It's Welsh, Scots, Geordies, Yorkies, Americans et al who have the accent. Of course, he is correct.
