It's like we're going back in time.

At least the UKIPers will be happy they want us going back to the 1940's

The 3rd-wave Feminism Movement is primarily responsible for coming up with all this claptrap.

See also "Tumblrinas" and "SJWs"

It gets worse. I went through a door the other day and held it open for the person ebhind who just happened to be a woman.

Instead of a thank you i got

"You sexist pig, you don;t think i'm capable of opening a door? Why do you continue to perpetuate the belittling of women?"

I was too shocked to even reply.

When this happens why can't you ever think of the biting retort of something along the lines of "I wasn't opening because you were a women, it's because you're obviously socially retarded" or the like

I'll have to start asking my wife not to put her arm around me :-P

*slams door in face
/end awkwardness.
Why, because I would have done the same to a bloke with that attitude so why not.

Helen Mirren is a bad-ass and has the right to voice her opinion. I can't see anywhere that she's actively stopping anyone from doing what they want though.

Sadly yes. I've seen it as well. Though they never said sexist pig to them but got very offended when somebody kept the door open for her.

While others at doctors surgeries and such were grateful. Even those with buggies.

Yep, agreed.

Or you could've said "I held it open because you look weak, now go make me a sandwich, bitch".

Why not be the better person and not sink oneself to that level?

Problem is i think of the cutting put me downs a few minutes after the event. Too late then.

Doesn't hold water if it's just the two of you imo. She, quite clearly, thinks you're a sexist pig. Go down fighting, the tash comment would have been hilarious.
