Well it does look like they were prepping themselves to do so, pulling up their jeans, testing the water, which I imagine was damn cold by her reaction. I guess they would have eventually taunted each other in to crossing, the guy simply sped it a long, keeping them dry and without frozen feet >> ^Lann:

I don't know why it was such an issue for them to get wet but upvote for the wakeboarding!

At least the wakeboarder is being a dick to everyone equally.

>> ^Kevlar:

Man, but if this ain't a self-contained nice guy parable... This guy goes out of his way to carry two girls across the street and in the middle of his kind act some jerk goes spinning by on a wakeboard, spraying everybody with water, and when everyone's done wildly cheering for the showoff the average guy just goes back to the silent task of hauling these girls around in awkward silence.
I mean, not that I'm bitter or anything.

I can see where you're coming from, but at the same time I can see the other side. Often what is considered polite and courteous is offensive. I'm not a delicate princess and I do take offense when I'm treated as such all the time. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy it when my romantic interest opens doors and whatnot, I just don't want to fight tooth and nail to be able to pay for something. Sort of ruins the romantic gesture.

I'm a badass, not a flower.

chivalry is dead, and feminism is the box they're gonna bury it in

A. Chivalry never existed. It's a myth invented by the Victorians.
B. You really think women being second class citizens will make men treat women better?
C. I hate it when feminism is blamed for all societal woes. Feminism is awesome and has brought about a better world for me and for my children to live in.

what i was actually saying was that it seems more and more often, whenever a guy tries to be polite for a girl, she mistakes it for him acting like she's below him (not dissimilar to the misunderstanding you just made), and talks about how she doesn't need him and whatnot. feminism is fine. really. i'm all for equal rights and wages and whatnot. just often i see the facts skewed by feminazis to look worse off than they are. with that in mind it seems like these days feminism isn't fueled so much from a thirst for equality as much as from, say it with me, misandry.
of course, everyone has their reasons.

I've often thought that the custom of men letting a woman go first was just a chance to look at her ass.


I actually heard a great theory on why you open the door and let women go first through them:

It goes back to medieval or even pre-medieval eras when women were worth less than men and more expendable as you could go and get another one (marriage is a new thing and so is marriage for love, arranged marriages were the norm). The way it works is that you let the female exit first and if someone is waiting outside of the house for the master of the house they would instead kill the female and the male can get his weapons and get revenge. Houses, and people, were smaller back then so it would not be uncommon for people to stand on the roof over the door and simply stab the first person going out and then the male in the house could stab them back through the roof... Revenge has been served.

Another fine, alleged, custom in the old norse countries were to block the doors, at night, of the house with the people you want to kill/get revenge on and simply set the house on fire and if the residents could not get out and fight you, i.e. die in battle as you have armour and weapons and they don't, they were refused entrance to Valhalla... smoke poisoning and third degree burns make you a much better fighter... ahh, the good old chivalrous days

Also think about booby traps... they trigger them... you have a greater chance of survival... eeeexcellent as Mr.Burns would say
