You will be surprised that in this age, men and women alike
still prefer gentlemen. By gentlemen, I don’t mean men who are dressed in a
very old-fashioned way. I refer to men who have respect for themselves and the
people they care about. Do you want to be labeled as a gentleman? If you do,
follow these timeless tips starting today.
Exude maturity – Evaluate yourself and check how mature you
are in the way you dress, speak and think. Adults tend to be immature these
days because of the technological advancements around. Be cautious when posting
pictures and statuses in your social media accounts. Aim for maturity too when
dealing with unpleasant circumstances and people. Think first before you act or
say anything.
Refrain from cursing or swearing – Even though today’s generation
is considered morally loose, many people are still offended by foul words. Instead
of cursing or swearing, practise learning new words that can help you become a
better communicator.
Be conscious of your personal hygiene – A clean and
well-groomed appearance is a mark of true gentlemen. A gentleman is appealing to
look at and to be with. Take the extra time to look and smell good. Facial hairs
may be an ‘in-thing‘ today but growing them is unnecessary for you to look manly.
Be considerate of others – Do you open or hold the door for
someone else? Do you find time to help oldies or women on the streets? Are you
sensitive enough to return favours? Observing these practices can set you apart
from the common men out there. Moreover, it will help build other people’s
trust on you.
