Depends on the girl. Personally I think the whole "gentleman" thing needs to be re-defined.

I don't mind if men don't open doors for me, don't buy me flowers, don't let me enter a room before they do, don't pay for dates. If they do, fine. If they don't, no big deal. Chivalry isn't equal to respect. Sure, nakakakilig sa umpisa, pero that doesn't last.

Ang tunay na sukatan ng gentlemanliness for me is when a man treats me like an EQUAL in a relationship: he doesn't patronize me. He doesn't put me up on a pedestal. He will treat me with respect. He does NOT treat me like I'm so fragile. He is comfortable knowing that I am strong and independent and passionate and driven, but will also be there if I need him to take charge. He will challenge me if I need to be challenged and argue with me if the situation calls for it. He knows I can argue back, and he respects me for it. To me a gentleman will never dare lay a hand on me, BUT he also will not lay a hand on another man for no reason.

A lot of people I've dated who fall under the cookie cutter definition of "nice guy" turned out to be manipulative, so baka kaya ganun yung pananaw ko. But that could be just me. It's a matter of preference.
