Times like these I think the Hellenes had it right with the idea of xenia.
For anyone else who’s learning something new today. That’s generally what I practice, though I tend to think of it as a form of chivalry. I’m a woman ish, but I like the idea of decoupling chivalry from gender roles and treating everyone with more care than is typical. Plus, sexist men hate nothing more than having a woman hold the door or offer to carry something heavy for them.
Anyone who can upset sexist men is a-okay in my book. I like you.
It's what I think of any time I hear the phrase "traditional values". Caring about other people is the basis of any sane ethos.
Yeah, that’s exactly the spirit in which I use chivalry!
That's what I prefer too.
