For a long time in our society people have uttered the phrase "Chivalry is dead" and sadly my generation often times accepts that, men and women think yep that's true. However people are often to hasty with their ideology to realize that sometimes, things aren't dead, they are just hiding. To me, chivalry is like a unicorn. If you truly believe in it you will be able to find it, and often times show it.
But something about chivalry and unicorns is sometimes they don't appear the way that you typically think that they should appear. Some days, unicorns just happen to look like horses with a birthday hat on, and chivalry comes when someone, anyone just holds the door open a tad bit longer than usual so you don't have to freak out about opening it when you have a billion things in your arms. Sometimes chivalry appears in the way of humility and truthfulness, while a unicorn appears as an anorexic rhino.
The truth of the matter is, whenever chivalry does occur, it's something to smile at. Whether some nice guy takes you out and pays the check, or some friend making sure that you are okay. Chivalry is a unicorn only it exists and can be found without having to squint and force horses to dress up in silly costumes, or force Rhino's to become bulimic.
