Chivalry:
It's treating a woman politely
As long as she isn't a fright:
It's guarding the girls who act rightly,

I meet Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson at a book signing and ask him how he doesn't have an existential crisis every day; he knows exactly how insignificant he is, but he seems pretty happy. "Your name's Mara?" he says, and I nod. "Mara, let me ask you something. Have you taken a philosophy class?" "Yeah, I took ethics and logic and some other ones," I say. "How did you know?"
