A not so shocking result of feminism....

The death of chivalry, of course.  The Washington Times reports that as our nation abandons (as it largely has in the debate of whether homosexuals can marry) the concept that a man ought to give special deference to a woman for that reason alone, the social manifestations of special deference for women disappear.

On the other hand, the survey also exhibits a remarkable disconnect from reality on the part of those surveyed, who believe that women are paid less than men for the same work (false), and that they're discriminated against for high positions (the opposite is true).  So perhaps we don't have as much a problem with chivalry as we do with....

.....people assuming that they ought to be treated like kings and queens no matter how they're behaving.

Rest assured, of course, that the management and staff at this blog are committed to the idea of chivalry.
