Our favourite 17 shutdowns of the ‘petrolhead entrepreneur’ who had this choice for women

Here’s a guy called Richard Cooper who, among other things, is a petrolhead and entrepreneur and combines both these passions with something called ‘entrepreneurs in cars’.

According to this bio he ‘dispenses the cold hard truth about scenarios in inter-gender relationships, life, business, money and is about helping men become a better version of themselves and tuning into their intuition’.

Hard to believe we know but it turns out he’s not overly keen on feminism either and he presumably thought he had a killer line when he tweeted this.

Except, well, here’s how everyone replied and they’re even more satisfying than watching Top Gear while checking your bitcoin.

I'm perfectly capable of holding doors open for women and still considering them my equals or my superiors. It's called not being an asshole, and having a brain that can think in more than two dimwitted gears. https://t.co/9cTag7xPIF

We are sooooo bored with “chivalry” which stems from the courtly love period in the middle ages when women were treated as valuable property. We really like equality, and we are perfectly capable of opening our own doors.

Literal definition of chivalry: courteous behavior, especially that of a man toward women.

If there is no room in that "courteous behavior" to extend equal pay or equal work, body autonomy and equal protection under the law – how fucking "courteous" is it? https://t.co/Fq2pgz8quP
