How The Current Culture is Killing Chivalry

Chivalry

Our current culture is not all about being romantic and minding the manners your parents taught you as kids. Romance is no longer the guy buying his girl friend, which means the world to him, roses, chocolate, or a teddy bear. These days maybe the girl is buying stuff or nothing gets bought at all. The girl don’t even mean as much to the guy anymore. Normally the girl thinks more of the guy rather than the other way around.

Many people don’t know what caused this change but we can blame it on the internet, television, or the parents that taught us. There are so many internet web sites that “tell you how to be romantic”. Most people believe what they read on the internet so they think that whatever the blog or anything says is right. It don’t help that the television we watch puts a false picture of romance in our head. Most the time there is about three people getting drunk and all three of them going and jumping in bed. Another thing is our parents. If we never see them being romantic towards each other then we don’t know how to be romantic. They are the ones that should set the example rather than the TV and internet.

Sometimes you will come across a family that has being romantic down. But it makes you wonder if it’s just a put on or if they really are always romantic. There are many that put on a pretty good show but if their kids see that then they think that the only time they will have to be romantic is when they are in public or around people they want to impress.
