A man of calm demeanor who demonstrates good will toward others and practices the common courtesies of the society in which he inhabits. One who keeps his word when given and defends the honor of his name while using violence as only the last resort.

Something that is very rare in today's world. A gentleman is a man (yes, folks, a MAN) who will normally open doors for a lady and generally be quite nice and polite.

the most noble of all qualities of a man. being a gentleman means being courteous, gallant, chivalrous, selfless, kind, friendly, well mannered, ethical, and of strong moral fiber.
a man should strive to be a gentleman for the betterment of women, not to attract women. (don't expect to attract women just because you are a gentleman, or expect recognition for your behaviour, or you're simply a poseur)
pretending to be a gentleman in an attempt to get women is looked down upon

Not to many people know the meaning of gentalmen now. But a simple way is a person who cares about others more than there own well being.
Many get confused that you have to have a good upbring or always have to be polite.But it's just the little things (like in the example) to make someone less in pain or feel good.
Note: Anyone CAN be a gentleman
