No, definitely not. I think the strict definition of gentleman implied having more than one nice shirt and enough money to show a girl a nice time, so right away I was out of the running.
Oh is that the implication? Unfortunately, many men that fall under that definition lack manners. So perhaps my loose definition of having proper manners and say... not hitting a woman? How would you fare in that?
I won't if I can help it. Sometimes the nature of combat makes it's unavoidable, but I don't take any pleasure in it. I don't take pleasure in hitting anyone.
I know we've barely met, and this may contradict what I just said, but if you do meet anyone who doesn't fit your definition of gentleman — and I hope you don't, but if you do —
