I am sure you must be wondering every man is a gentleman, why is there a need to point out certain traits?

Today, we use the word ‘gentleman’ without really understanding how deep is its meaning. Just because at gatherings audiences are commonly addressed as “ladies and gentlemen” doesn’t mean that every man is a gentleman.

On looking at the real meaning of the word ‘gentleman’, we realize how carelessly we use it. This word has evolved over a long time. It is associated with a man who has esteemed values and principles in place that make him worthy to be called a gentleman.

So who exactly is a gentleman? Is he the man who channelizes the stiff upper lipped charm like the Victorian era or the one who we know as the metrosexual man who is just-so-sweet with his courteous behaviour?

Well, read on to know the 9 definitive traits that a man should possess to be essentially called a ‘gentleman’.
