I Have Trouble With Men Holding The Door For Women — Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Says
While a lot of ladies consider it a kind gesture for men to hold the door for them, reverse seems to be the case with the beautiful Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. The Nigerian novelist has a problem with it. While on “The Daily Show” with Trevor Noah on Wednesday, she said:
“I think holding the door shouldn’t be gender, it’s a lovely thing to hold the door, but we should hold the dorr for everyone. I hold the door for men and women.
I think the idea of holding the door for a woman because she is a woman, I have trouble with it. i am quite happy with people holding the door for me, but i hope they are not doing it because of this sort of idea of chivalry, because chivalry is the idea that women are somehow weak and need protecting, but we know that there are many women that are stronger than many men”
