Poor Neil Cavuto, had the nerve to open up a door for a woman. What happened next reeks of classic New York feminism.
"Do I look paralyzed to you?" she asked. [...]Talk about having a permanent chip on your shoulder. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be nice to people.When I recomposed myself, I had to follow her.
"Excuse me," I asked - now feeling every bit of my offended macho Italian roots - "but exactly what bug got up your butt?"
"Treating me like I have to be coddled," she said.
"By opening a door?" I asked.
She went onto explain the door thing was part and parcel of a bigger thing: An attempt by men, she said, to make women feel like they're lesser.
It's ungentlemanly to argue. She wants to nag, and a gentleman's obligation is to listen as if he cared.
It all works towards the ultimate goal of getting laid.
If she really wanted to be treated as a man would be treated Neil should have replied, "Fuck you, cunt."
