I'm Not a Gentleman Lyrics
GETO BOYS (Willie D) Ladies first, who the fuck made up that shit? 9 times outta 10 it was a bitch I'm comin' at cha like this Cause your pussy ain't no more important than my dick miss I'm not your motherfuckin' doll You won't see me runnin' to ya at your every beckon call Bitches act like they handicapped Want me to open doors, pull out chairs and all that I'm the motherfuckin' gangster of love So how you gonna run me like I'm some kind of scrub Think your pussy made of gold, well it's not You couldn't get a dime for it at the pawn shop I won't pack your bags at the store Now will I take you to a play or a musical, whore And break my neck to be extra polite I'll take your motherfuckin' ass to a chicken fight And if you get cold, you gonna sneeze Cause I ain't givin' you my coat, so I can freeze People say my manners are minimum I'm from the ghetto hoe I'm not a motherfuckin' gentleman I'm not a gentleman I'm not a motherfuckin' gentleman I told you that in the first rap Hell no I won't remove my cap When I go to ya moms crib for my grill t-shirt, sneakers and jeans is how I feel (?????) Cause I'll be eatin' with my hands not the proper utensils I say yeah, naw, not ma'am I was raised like that, so that's the way I am I don't give a damn if ain't got a seat My feet hurt bitch, you ain't no better than me Stand your ass up, wait your time I don't give a fuck if your 9 or 99 Drop something if you want to freak And I won't leap to pick it up like a geek In a dash or flash, goddamn, I'll pass I'ma let you bend over so I can see dat ass I might laugh, giggle, or grin You could say Willie D is out to win People say my manners are minimum I'm from the ghetto hoe I'm not a motherfuckin' gentleman I'm not a gentleman I'm not a motherfuckin' gentleman Or a nice guy or goodfella I'll straight up tell her Bitch, to suck my dick Fuck that beatin' around the bush shit When I go to see a hoe I don't knock at the door, I blow And if we go to a restaurant I don't let her pick it Cause she'll try to choose the one most expensive You don't like it when I walk in the front zone Well slowpoke ass hoe, bring your ass on But every woman ain't a motherfuckin' lady I treat a hoe like a hoe and a bitch like a bitch And a lady like a lady but I don't sip Dom Perrigion And listen to Luther or Kenny G, its Geto Boys and Jubiliee You can't catch me holdin' hands in the shopping mall If I'm wearin' (?????) You know I'm gettin' them draw's People call me a lot of things love But they'll never accuse me of Being a motherfuckin' gentleman I'm not a gentleman Sorry mom I just had to do it!! | |

I always hold the door open for people, and it's true, over half of them don't say thanks.
And one thing that really pisses me off is when you hold the door open for someone, and a whole load of other people file through as well, and NO ONE TAKES THE DAMN DOOR! So I end up stuck there like a fucking doorman while a bunch of ingrates file through thinking "now do I just let go of the door and let it slam into some idiot who can't be fucked to take his hands out of his pocket or look up from texting his stupid friends, or do I just stand here like some idiot human automatic door?" | |

I'm a polite holder-open of doors too, not just for women but anyone.
It makes me seethe when rude people pass through without saying thank you. As I'm being polite myself I feel it's my duty to teach them some manners too, so I usually shout YOU'RE WELCOME at them. Sad that some people have to be embarrassed into being mannerly. Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP. | |

It is so true! I always hold doors open for people and I would say that a pretty large percentage of women either don't thank you or get mad with you and give you a dirty look!
I even had one woman tut at me whilst I stood there in the rain holding the door as she was pushing a pram with a baby in it. Put yourself on the worldwide org map! www.frappr.com/princeorg | |

people are pretty friendly in the South, so it's rare that you don't at least get a smile out of them. but i'm with anotherlover, it's always good to do it not expecting anything in return. you never know what might be going on in their lives that has them preoccupied. | |

I always say thankyou, and I get a thankyou most of the time when I hold the door open, the times I dont get a thankyou doesn't really bother me, but I woulld say it is bad manners not to do so.
i dont expect the door to be held open for me, but I am always appreciative when it is. :door: [This message was edited Fri Feb 20 4:06:49 2004 by Lleena] | |

I have the tendency to fumble over a door situation...
You go, OK, no you go.... And we end up bumping into each other and generally falling in love. | |

I started a thread a few months ago "how do women take compliments" some of them have a hard time saying thanks let alone it seems most of them would rather just not be complimented. “A poor man waited a thousand years before the gate of paradise.

Yeah. But whenever I smile back, they sometimes seem to take it as a flirt and even try to flirt back They did WHAT??!....

I ALWAYS SAY THANK YOU WHEN PEOPLE MAN OR WOMAN HOLD THE DOOR FOR ME.. I SAY THANK YOU WHEN PEOPLE PULL OUT A CHAIR FOR ME.. I SAY THANK YOU WHEN I GET CHANGE AT THE SUPERMARKET (WHEN IN ACTUALITY, THEY SHOULD BE SAYING THANK YOU TO ME) **THAT ONE ANNOYS ME!!! .. I SAY THANK YOU WHEN SOMEONE MOVES OUT OF MY WAY WALKING UP THE SUBWAY STAIRS.. The day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom - Anais Nin

Byron said: Been wondering about this lately...
I always--always--hold the door open for women, no matter what...men as well, actually...just a polite thing to do, and my mom always emphasized being a gentleman (so did my sister, actually...lol)..But I've noticed that, when I do hold the door open for a women coming or going into the store, the bank...wherever...it's a coin toss as to whether she'll say "thank you" or not...whether she'll smile or not... Half the time, the woman I've held the door open for will say thank you...a few of them with an appreciative smile... ...but the other half of the time, they either just walk thru as if holding the door open is my job, or they rush thru with their eyes and head pointed down or off to the side, as if they're suspicious of my motives or my intent...I could understand it if I looked scary or something, but please...I've seen squirrels that looked scarier than I do. Men are ALWAYS appreciative when I hold the door open for them...but women are either appreciative, snobby or freaked...lol....So, what gives?? I do. I always say, "Thank you". However, some of the time I'm wondering for a second whether the person holding the door has heard me because they're doing that which you mentioned above, hun. And, there is no, "You're welcome."... There are times when my mind is wandering elsewhere, but someone holding a door for me has always 'brought me back'...I'd walk smack into it myself if I weren't paying at least that much attention as I enter a building. But, I agree with HandClaps, ALT, IAmTheTouch, as well as with cynicalbastard. There are just so many answers to your question. | |

There is only one guy that holds the door open for me and that's my best friend. He also opens the cardoor for me, too. I love it and I always say thank you. He simply says "it's what a man is supposed to do." | |

I say "thank you" to people for practically everything. It's more of a habbit than a sincere remark tho.
As for being a gentlemen to women, no offense ladies, but screw that. I'm gay, I'm not trying to court any of you, LOL. If we go out to dinner, I'm not obligated to pay the whole check. It's not beneath you to hold a door open for me sometime either. And if you get up in my face and start swinging, I won't hesitate for one moment to swing back. | |

It's so rare that men hold the door for me, I ALWAYS say thank you. However, somedays I'm in a mood and I might not say it loud enough. *sigh* I hold doors for men and women, like if I get to the door first and they are RIGHT behind me. I don't go out of my way unless a person is carrying lots of stuff and they obviously will need help.
