I think some women expect to be deferred toSo as a man you weren't raised with manners.I think it is women in general
They tend not to step aside for anyone, probably won't hold a door for you and make lousy tippers
My parents taught me that when it came to stepping aside it generally is expected to be age relevant then sex.
For example I as a older man seeing a younger woman would expect HER to hold the door for me...but in many cases that doesn't happen. Oh well.
But when I as an Older man see an older woman... I hold the door.
So to me it is respect. Younger people today seem lacking in respect for their elders and for manners in general.
But it certainly isn't as this young black man a "racist" thing! Again his parents didn't teach him fundamentals of good manners is the true case!
Bad parenting if in fact he had parents!
They are to have doors held open for them, they do not hold doors
I used to work in a winery where I would carry cases of wine out to people's cars. Men seemed guilty that I had to help them and generally tipped. Women expect to have things carried for them
