Is being called a gentlemen really an insult today?
If your out on a first date or meeting and a woman refers to you as an gentlemen or a generous man kind man?
WHat do you guys make of that?

I don't see how it could be considered an insult
Why would you ask that?

Was having this discussion with the fellas and most was were agreeing that if a chick is throwing this out alot, then she is prolly putting you in the friend zone category....and not in the category of someone she really digging

It's been a loooooong time ago, but... Maybe I have. I have put gentlemen as well as assholes in the friend zone though. I have a lot of guy friends.

Welcome to the friend zone.......unless she's non-American, then it might be an actual complement.

^^That's because you're a badass.
Another friend zone phrase is "awwww, thanks" when you send them a compliment via text.Boost gets you laid, unless your name is Jon.

Guilty of this one myself. Originally Posted by 35th-ANV-SS

. I also think any of those phrases depends on the context in which such phrases are used.

Meet any woman around here and you will understand.
If you have a job, you try too hard.
If you lift or work out, you are self-centered.
If you didn't go to college to be a lawyer, engineer, or doctor you ain't their type.
If you have to get up at 6am to go to a job, you're boring.
If you open a door for them, they'll have a pack of feminists on you like white on rice.
I'll think of some more.

Once you're in the friend zone too long, you're f'd and not in a good way. It takes a lot of skill and know-how to get yourself out of the friend zone. It can be done though.
