Recently I started working on a story for our school paper about gentlemen on the campus. Well, I don't know about any other schools, but VUU has a TERRIBLE shortage. Why is it so hard to find a decent dude in school? I mean, college should be one of the first places to look, so where are the gentlemen? And if you don't know what make a guy a gentleman, here are a few characteristics.
1. He holds doors
2. He helps you move your stuff in when you come to school
3. If you're at an event and the seats are limited, he offers you his
4. He speaks to you as if you're a lady, not yelling things like "Damn, you s*xy as hell ma!! Can I hit that?"
5. He defends you against the guys that won't respect you
Are there any on your campus?
I feel what you are saying. I guess most guys are so caught up in the fast life that they don't take the time to reconize a woman's worth. Rappers don't make it any better but they can't blame no one but themselves. Also some women love when men talk to them any kind of way. They think that is cute. That doesn't help the situation either. Time and patience. Some will get it a little bit sooner then others.
