Debretts tells us that a gentleman will pay for dinner and walk on the outside edge of the pavement. But according to a new survey, women are more charmed by a man who texts regularly and puts out the rubbish. 　　近日，一份有趣的报告打破我们对“绅士”的刻板印象，绅士的定义不再是“吃饭买单”“过马路保护你”，现在的窈窕淑女们希望身边的绅士们更实用些，她们希望绅士能够“约会时候发短信”“出门倒垃圾”。 　　Pulling out chairs and opening doors no longer come high on a list of typical traits. Instead, they have been replaced by making a cup of tea for a woman in the morning, and looking after her when she has a hangover. 　　再有，“为女士拉椅子”和“为女士开门”都不算是当今淑女们理想中的绅士模样了，女士们更希望绅士们能做到“早上为自己泡茶”或者自己宿醉的时候能被绅士们照顾。 　　An ability to cook and an understanding manner when a woman is suffering from PMT are also essential traits for a modern gentleman, according to the survey of 3,000 women by Austin Reed. 　　在电视剧《婚姻保卫战》中的“家庭煮夫”一词深入人心，原来这个热词也是有根据的哟，研究者根据一个对象为3000位女士中发现，女士希望另一半更会做饭的愿望十分强烈。

　　让我们一起来看看到底“传统绅士”和“现代绅士”有什么样的区别吧!
