I was lucky to be raised by ministers because I knew how to treat ladies of all ages

At the time growing up I thought being the son of two ministers was mostly a "pain in the ass" most of the time. However, looking back I was taught not only how to speak to ladies but also rich people, poor people, middle Class people, older people, younger people, people of a different race or ethnicity all by the time I was 9 years old.

Why?

Because often I had to greet or say goodbye to several hundred people at our church when a service was over. I was shy and this was painful. But, because of good training at being well mannered around literally any type of person I found when I reached dating age (for me age 15) in 1963 this meant that the girls I wanted to date's mothers all liked me because I was so well behaved (at least around them I was).

So, I never really ever had problems with ladies of any age because of my training growing up at an early age. I always knew what was proper and what was not. It isn't that I always acted in proper ways because some times it wasn't called for. But, because of my training it automatically kicked in when I most needed it.

I watched other guys I knew falter at communication because they had never been trained how to act around beautiful girls of any age like I was.

So, as a result of this I didn't have complaints from women of any age because I knew what to do and what to say always.

And this politeness and gentility and soft spoken ways put me in good stead most of my life.

Mostly what it did for me is to make other young men very jealous of me because I was cultured when often they were not and many didn't even know how to be cultured I noticed either.

So, to demand ALL men to get exactly what is going on now I don't think is realistic because always about 25% of all men just aren't going to EVER get it really.

And I think this might be the real problem here especially for men who have no respect for women because they just never were trained that way ever in the first place by Anyone.

So, my thought is it just might not be their fault that no one ever took the time to train them right in the first place.
