Aren't there laws about not helping someone, or least not calling the police, in a situation involving a crime like a rape that you have active knowledge of and are in a position to help the victim?
As for the actual topic on hand, no they cannot, at least under current definitions. Chivalry is defined to be a male quality, simple as that. Yet it also just to happen that being chivalrous to a lady can get you sued. I've heard stories of men being sued for doing things as simple as holding the door open for a female co-worker. Yet if that same person doesn't do that others will view him as an *******. Part of the problem is that women want it both ways. They want their man to be a kind caring person, who holds the door open for them, or open the pickle jar, yet they also want to do things in their own and feel a man catering to them to make their job easier is being sexist.
Really the main problem is that their are some women who want their cake and to eat it too. While others want one or the other. Besides how are us guys suppose to know which situation is it appropriate for us to help or not without the female saying? And don't say common sense, because that is not the correct answer.
One last thing, if the "oppressed" White Male thing is still being discussed, I will lay the truth down if asked.
