But now, he will probably look out of the window or hide behind his newspaper,  (leave) the lady standing     someone else gets off. You can’t entirely blame men   this change in manners.

A whole generation has grown up demanding   (equal) with men in jobs, in education and in social life.  Hold a door for some women   you are likely to get   angry lecture on treating women    weaklings. Take a girl out for a meal and she’ll probably insist on paying __share of the bill. All these, according to some sociologists, will change men’s attitude towards women and the conventional active politeness is perhaps slowly being  (replace) by true consideration for the needs and feeling of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.
