I Suddenly Understand Why Some Women Fear Old Men

Today, I learned myself to always let the woman out of the elevator before you. I didn't learn this lesson because a sexless crone tried to groom me or anything like that.<br><br>I was on my way to a job interview, and I had spent quite a bit of time making sure that my hair was perfect. As I was leaving my apartment building, an extremely old man, with a cane, walked into the elevator behind me. I have no idea if he was aware of the buttons on the elevator, because when the doors closed, he leaned forward, and pressed the all the buttons. Now, I'm pretty sure most of you know what happens when you press every button on an elevator. That's right, it stops at every level. Luckily for me, I was going to the bottom floor, so I could just get out at the next stop. However, the old man was goin to the 12th floor. Even worse, he didn't get off at the bottom floor, when he could have waited for the next elevator to go back up.<br><br>The worst part, is that I could have prevented all this from happening. Whenever I see a woman in the elevator at my apartment, I always let her out first, because I know that they spend more time on their appearance than us, and they deserve to spend their time doing whatever it is they are doing, rather than waiting for someone to get off at a higher floor.<br><br>Now, I'm not saying that every woman is like this, but this is why I now understand why some women are afraid of older men in elevators.
