cuz men n women are really not equal. and since most of the societies are patriarchal so men like to show-off that they really have the power.
ok..j/k i think its a nice gesture, but i sometimes find it awkward cuz it gives u sense that guys are getting serious about u. and i might be wrong about this cuz may be he only might just giving me a respect, and thats it.
So its a female saying cuz men n women are really not equal. Why its always like that? and then later on saying that I am neutral for both.
**men like to show-off that they really have the power.
**Its not power but being charming and smart makes it happen. I haven't paid it like this because never got time for this. :D
I know now you will say I just joked.. :D
