The Gentleman Test

Question #1

A woman needs help, so you slow your car down.
She's fixing a flat tire, in an elegant gown.

What do you do?

A) Do the job for her and refuse any pay.
or
B) Run over her boyfriend and steal her away.

Question #2

A beautiful woman, from Avon, comes to the door.
Your wife's not at home, she's gone to the store.

What do you do?

A) Say, "My wife is so beautiful, she doesn't need any help".
or
B) Invite her inside and get a makeover yourself.

Question #3

You're in a fancy restaurant, with your lovely wife.
When the well-endowed waitress asks if you see something you like.

What do you do?

A) Say, "I'll have the steak & a salad and some mashed potatoes".
or
B) Say, "Forget the food sweetie, I'll just take a couple of those".

Question #4

You're on the escalator, behind a girl in a mini-skirt.
She's looking very messy, with the dangling tail of her shirt.

What do you do?

A) Mind your own business and just let her be?
or
B) Tuck it back in, so no one will see.

Question #5

Your girlfriend cooks a marvelous meal of stuff she knows you're lovin'.
For hours, she's been slavin' and cookin' and wrestlin' with the oven.

What do you do?

A) Wait until she's seated and let her be served first?
or
B) Take all the best pieces and leave her with the worst?

Question #6

You come up to a door, you see some women, following a few steps behind.
If you hold the door and let them go first, they will take your place in line.

What do you do?

A) Open the door, smile and say hi! Let them pass on through?
or
B) Open the door, smile and say ha! I'm still in front of you!

Question #7

You're lying in bed, you're out of breath, sexually satisfied.
The woman beside you, is still unfulfilled, waiting for the fun to arrive.

What do you do?

A) Caress her curves, touch her spots, make her body quake?
or
B) Say thanks, roll over, fake a snore, pretend you're not awake?


This was a test, to see if you would pass.
Are you a true gentleman, or are you just an *ss?
If you answered 'B', to a single question above,
You are the derriere, that the women all speak of.

Lordy Roger, forget all the questions but the last. That's the only one you have to get right.

It was rare to get all "A's" on a test in school ...
but to my surprise I have become nobody's fool.
Your style and form is fitting of such a Gent,
and I am proud to know what "experience" meant.

Cheryl,
I had to remove 3 of them because I couldn't pass the test and I wanted it rigged to make me look good. I'm a leg-a-holic so the mini-skirt question would probably be my biggest test.

Randy,
Haven't met a guy yet that admitted failure. Haven't met a woman yet that says this man exists.

Noah,
I'm such a gentleman that I stand on those mats at the supermarket so really light weight old ladies don't run into the glass thinking the door will open and then get squished. What a nice guy.

Roger

Lyra,
Those lips are intoxicating and mesmerizing. The avon lady wouldn't sell me any lipstick but she kept letting me sample them while she wore them. I thought she had on really great blush, but she said she wasn't wearing any. Showed me a great new use for an eyelash curler. I bought 10.

Startime,
I like it better when you giggle, than when I make you cry. Wouldn't want ya to think I'm a heavy-breathin-heathen.

CTOWEN,
I don't think the women would like us if we got all A's. They wouldn't have anything to complain about or fix. Luckily my wife gets more projects than Martha Stewart.

Now...wait a minute...I think this test
was written by a woman....cause it requires
me to be a perfect gentleman...and an angel
with no feelings of desire....WAIT...I
think I am already there....must be at my
age...or would I just be a dirty old man?

This is good...liked it..

Roger darling boy I really love this poem it is UTTERLY utterly fabulous.
Yes I know I always say that but then you always write to utter perfecti

I thought you could add this to your gentlemans test, but these questions are only for you


You’re a married spud oh my goodness me
I wanted to see just how far I could temp thee?
How about if I wear my skirt split to my thigh
Will that make you swoon, will it make you sigh?
If I brush against you as I wander past
Will that make your heart beat a little fast?
Don’t tell me there’s no effect if I do this?
Because Roger darling I know you love my kiss

You’re a married spud and it’s such a shame
Isn’t it a pity that you’ll never hold my flame?
I wonder what you’d do if I whisper come to me?
Would you start to tremble would you be shaky?
If I asked you nicely come and dance do
Would you say I can’t, I don’t know how too?
If my hand brushed lightly on your thigh
Would you Roger darling heave a mighty sigh?

It's a good job you know the answers darling boy Big smile I thought you'd like a little wenches heat.

You know that this is utterly wonderful don’t you, the flow is just perfect

Thank you for this wonderful poem it’s utterly utterly wonderful and again into my library with you

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

I answered each one honestly
I failed the test, as you can see
I also laughed the whole way through
But I'm no gentleman, it's true
But I sell Avon

Magnus,
Dirty old men need love to. I was once told that I must walk a thin line to even think of the 'B' answers. It's a crooked line.

strbbux,
First the man would have to be honest enough to give his true score. If he's not a gentleman, then he would lie. So you have the real gentlemen that got all A's and the fake gentlemen that lied about getting all A's. Either way they all got A's, so the test is flawed. Sigh.............

GenXer,
An honest man makes for a good knight. Women like us flawed as long as we are honest about it. So your white steed has a few spots on it. No one can see them when you are riding off into the sunset.

RosePetal,
I'm teaching my sons to be real gentlemen. They hold the doors open for people and say thank you and please and bless you when you sneeze. All this and they don't even like girls.

Marsha,
Oh, temptress divine,
Thy chills climb my spine.
I'd gladly thee bed,
But my wife'd see me dead.
Your heat is amazing,
Keeps my briefs ablazing.
As a married spud I cannot,
For I have tater tots.
But feel free to fashion,
Lots of heat, lots of passion.
I will honor this gold band,
But you make me glad I'm a man.

Liz,
As my new and wonderous friend,
There is one thing I recommend.
This test really works the best,
If one is blessed with hairy chest.
So if you failed so miserably,
Maybe you should shout with glee.
For if you had received all A's,
Many questions would it raise.

C,
hehehe, sounds like man times three.
One is enough, for most of the stuff.
Only the wenchy dame, of Kent would claim,
As love advisor, three's an appetizer.

well, i'll admit failure - but i disagree with one of the questions.
i would hold the door - but i don't buy that they'd get in line first - they would not either, and you won't convince me it's to their benefit to get there first - it will actually take less aggregate time if i go ahead and get through the line and out of the way

Sunshine,
I bowed. Noticed a stain on my shoe. Fell over trying to wipe it off. Hit my desk and spilled my pop all over my keyboard causing a fire and causing the sprinklers to go off and wash the stain off my shoe. Strange world.

Dave,
That is the most unique username I've ever seen. The line question is most perplexing. Depending on the purpose of the line, one could argue that holding the door was self-serving and not a gentleman gesture at all. I'm rubbing my chin beard stubble in an inquisitive manner. Oh, and saying Hmmmmmm.

I was never an A grade student

Very cute write, and a lot of very valid points here. I must admit, I'm a sucker for a true gentleman

mauddib,
Be careful when cramming. Wouldn't want something vital to get pushed out the other side.

Martie,
It's the one thing that I like to give away.

Kethry,
You're swimming in the wrong pond. That's the ones with Sharks and jellyfish.
You want the one with humpbacks and starfish.
Ding Dong ladies with their own knockers,
In our neighborhhod it's support hose and walkers. (This is not in any way a slap at those that enjoy the comfort provided by hose of a supporting type, or those that use walkers to help them stay upright).

Tracey,
This is true. A true gentleman would run over the boyfriend and steal the girl, but only if the car belonged to the boyfriend. No wonder ladies have trouble finding true gentlemen. They don't stick to a standard code of conduct rating. I knew it was the women's fault.

Roger
