Here are a few more rules based on How to be a Gentleman by John Bridges:
"If a gentleman is lost, he admits it. He readily asks for directions."
"In a workout room, a gentleman does not hog the weights."
"A gentleman uses his turn signal."
"A gentleman knows that 'please' and 'thank you' are still the magic words."
"A gentleman uses a coaster."
"A gentleman always carries dollars bills in his pocket. He never knows when he may need to tip a doorman, a maitre d', or a parking attendant."
"A gentleman learns the names of receptionists, administrative assistants, and secretaries at the offices where he makes frequent calls. He thanks them for their assistance as often as possible."
"A gentleman considers it a wise investment to pay for dancing lessons."
"A gentleman never makes himself the center of attention. His goal in life is to make life easier, not just for himself but for his friends, his acquaintances, and the world at large. Because he is a gentleman, he does not see this as a burden. Instead, it is a challenge he faces eagerly every day."
