Exactly! I haven't seen any women get defensive on a door being held open for them as far as I can remember, but there's really no need to get upset about it when it happens. I bet if that same person let the door slam in her face she would think he was rude.
I teach both my boys to let a lady go before them ALWAYS. They hold doors open for everyone. I don't even have to remind them anymore. Most of the time women are very thankful and think it's the cutest thing.
