well it is more polite for the man to hold the door open and let the woman go first. it doesn't really matter but if the man wants to be a gentleman its way more polite, and it also shows respect for the woman. -----

It is polite for the Man to hold Open the Door and let the lady enter first. However I have found that is not possible if the door is a Push type... so in these occassions I would say the man to walk through and hold the door open and allow the lady to enter. I believe that it is still a sign of respect and in a modern society where good manners seem to be fading it happens less and less. A elderly man once he held the door open for a young woman and she snarled at him "you dont have to hold the door open for me just because I am a woman I can do it myself" to which the Elderly Man replied "You may not be a lady but I will always be a Gentleman"
