Why would a man need to open a door for chat gpt

I personally vibrate on a molecular level and phase through them myself.

On Lemmy, men only use doors. Anything but windows, right gang?

Man here. I haven't opened a door since 2005. When my wife isn't with me I just stand outside trying to hide my tears until a woman comes along to let me in.

Surely if you are near a door and someone wants to come through you open and hold it for them regardless of sex?

[–] SirActionSack@aussie.zone 15 points 1 day ago

I ONLY hold it if there's sex.

Gender is irrelevant.

If it's a man coming, I purposefully and with force, slam it shut and block it with my body.

[–] axexrx@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If you just stand there, waiting for another man to ~~cum~~ come , that makes you gay.

Thats what I do. Hilarious if just so many people pour into the building and im stuck there for 5 minutes until some other poor schmuck takes my place.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 12 hours ago

Ah, yes, the door curse. In order to free yourself, another must take your place.

[–] Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 day ago

I just hold it long enough for them to not have to open it again, but I let it go once they are in range to hold it themselves.

Been my experience with random people for like a decade or more. The only people I've run into who seemed to care was this elderly couple in Alabama (I was visiting, live in GA) where the wife always waited for her husband to open doors, and my sister-in-law who has my brother open doors for her.

She also chastised me for not walking over to my mom's door and opening it for her when we were all eating out once, to my mother's confusion because she's used to opening her own doors.

[–] axexrx@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I used to work in a brew pub. I had a woman once criticize me for not going out of my way to get the door for her. I was behind the bar, so that would have required me walking like 20' away and then 30' back to front to get to her.

She let herself in then called me out for not opening the door for her. I responded with "I needed to make sure you werent a vampire, since they can't enter uninvited!"

She grimaced and one of the regulars chimed in "youre wrong, shes definitely a harpy, not a vampire!"

And she stormed out.

Looking at the image another question immediately arises: Do non-AI generated women still exist?

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 70 points 1 day ago

It is vitally important that everyone learn AI skills so they can generate open doors for AI women

Also yes, men do. Like me personally, I will hold open doors for other men even. And I’ve had doors opened for me too. These tradwife women high-key rude as fuck for never opening doors for people.

One time, I arrived at a small store as an employee was finishing their smoke break, exchanged friendly words as we both went towards the door. In that moment, I realized that if I open the door, it'll be right in his way and I paused, unsure about how to handle it. He ended up opening it for me, but the whole thing felt awkward as fuck, like my pause was because I was waiting for him to open it for me. Easily the worst door opening experience I've ever had. I'm a dude btw.

r/KenM was such a solid subreddit back in the day. Top tier comedy. Now it’s just fake profiles and bots that use the name for clicks.

I wasn't familiar, so I had a poke around the internet and found some lists of his work. Bloody hilarious.

I don't open doors. I learned to phase-shift long ago so now I just go through doors when I need to.
