The cruise liner situation is not about chivalry. Panic is a poor way to try to measure chivalry in any disaster. For me, chivalry is courteousness, kindness and generosity towards not just women, but people in general in everyday life and greetings. It really loses a lot in a life or death situation. That is hopefully when levelheadedness, contentment and your own personal morals step in.

Paul: What's in the box?

Reverend Mother: Pain...

Dune (1984) - Gom Jabbar

For those who haven't seen the movie or read the book, Paul is tested to see if he is human. An animal will do whatever it takes to save itself, including chewing it's own foot off to escape a trap, but a human will endure any pain or crisis in order to protect other humans.

The captain abandoning ship was a factor in the chaos.
The crew was looking to him for instruction and he was not there.

If we remember back with the titanic,
it was about getting women and children
on the boats first. So even in times of
peril that was still the order.
So, something has changed....

women fought for their rights.
they no longer need men to open doors for them.
equal is equal.
although being chivalrous might get you laid.

it's the interpretation of society of what the
women's movement was about.
Women are not a part of society?

I hear it on both sides, women who want men to dote on them, and women who get offended for the slightest gesture.

We are a society divided by a change in gender acceptance and equal rights.

I've never seen it or know any of these women.

I've met a few women who were offended by having a door held open for them.

I've never seen that happen either.

I hold doors open for people all the time. Both men and women.
