Chivalry Part 1

 I'm doing a project in Literature on Chivalry.  Chivalry, according to the World English Dictionary on dictionary.com, is "the combination of qualities expected of an ideal knight, esp courage, honour, justice, and  a  readiness to help the weak." 

 You don't find that much now a days, do you? 


Where on earth is Chivalry, if it's even on earth? 

Is Chivalry dead?


I thought ya'll might could help me answer those questions. If you're interested, email me with your answers to the questionnaire and answer my poll (which should be to your right) and then, once ya'll have replied, I'll post my answers. Honestly, I'd love it if you give your knee-jerk answers, but I know how hard it can be to do that, so you don't have to unless you want to. You don't have to be deep, you just have to be honest. I'm super excited to see what ya'll think! 


For the guys

What is chivalry?


What’s the most chivalrous thing you’ve ever done?


When’s the last time you demonstrated chivalry? What did you do?


Do you think chivalry is more than just the actions, i.e. opening doors, carrying boxes, offering the girl a seat, etc.? 


How many times out of ten do you show chivalry?


Do you think most guys practice chivalry if it is for a girl who most would deem attractive?


Do you think that girls are afraid of guys being chivalrous?


What do you think a girl’s role is in chivalry?


Do you think it is possible to do chivalrous actions and not be a chivalrous person?


Do you think chivalry is dead? If not, where is it? Should it be dead?
