I don't do any of that for women especially. I'll hold the door open for people. I never, or hardly ever say Ma'am. If a person is older or in some way, disabled or burdened, I'll offer them mine. I've probably done that checkout thing before, but never in recent memory.

Why would you aim those courtesies especially at women, as opposed everyone, or as opposed to women you find attractive? Is it because you think they're of a higher or lower status than you? I realize you're going to say it's good manners. In any culture, however, manners and etiquette vary according to perceived difference in status.

The devil is in the details.
