Texas school under fire for "chivalry day" that had girls obey boys

Female students were encouraged to “address all men with a lowered head and curtsy” and encouraged “not to whine or complain” for the duration of the assignment.

In order to win points during the exercise at Shallowater High School in Lubbock, female students were told not to “show intellectual superiority if it would offend the men around them,” according to the tweet.

Male students were also reportedly given advisories — including referring to girls as “milady” and showing “courtly courtesy as they assist ladies who may have dropped an article by picking it up for them,” according to a subsequent tweet.
