I believe being a ‘gentleman’ goes well beyond holding the door for a girl and letting her go before you. It’s about being vulnerable for her. I think that when it comes to the way we treat women, it’s a good idea to look to the way Jesus treated women. He laid His life down for His bride, He sacrificed for her, He lowered Himself for her, He was vulnerable for her. We must love women vulnerably in the same way that Jesus loved His bride vulnerably. Being a gentleman is far more than being caring and thoughtful, it’s about possessing sacrificial and vulnerable Christ-like characteristics. I don’t know if it’s possible to be a gentleman without knowing and representing the character of Jesus. .Cole Ryan
About This Quote
Nelson Mandela is one of the most successful men in the world. He has won more Nobel Prize than any other person in history. He was an icon for peace and reconciliation. He showed the world that a man could rise from a place of extreme poverty to become a leader of his country and a statesman for peace.
Nelson Mandela is a remarkable man, but what did you learn from this quotation? It’s not about holding doors for girls or being a gentleman, it’s about being vulnerable for her. That’s the real message of this quotation, which means that your behaviour should show her that you care for her and value her as a person. In fact, the ‘gentleness’ is not about being nice to women but about being vulnerable to them.
This is where you can show your emotions and show her that she matters to you by doing things that are very personal to her.
