Because there are so many ways to be one (and not be one) I will leave it up to you, with one exception:
if you drink cognac, you should click on gentleman |

Quoted:
Just because you drink cognac, does NOT make you a gentlemen. Work at a liquor store for day. Then come prove me wrong. Besides, American gentlemen dont drink fancy French shit. They drink nice, Kentucky bourbon. How many times do I have to post this?  i enjoy both....that being said...alot of hoodrats enjoy the cognac and they would not, in many circles be considered gentleman...... |

In my experience, 1 in 20 that buy cognac are not hood rats. And that's being conservative. Very conservative. |

I have a very gentlemanly umbrella which I purchased from the Swaine Adeney Brigg company of England, which is a purveyor to the royal family.
I open it on rainy days before I open the door for women. 
And I prefer Bourbon to cognac. But I like Port best of all. |

Only ruffians from the hills drink Bourbon.

nope.. I am a good ol fashioned blue collar, rough around the edges guy. I dont care about Tea Time, your suit and tie do not impress me, umbrellas are for women and sissies, gloves are only to protect your hands from injury... not the cold, the only polished shoes I wear are in uniform and I dont give to fucks if you speak proper english.

The day I stop being a gentleman, my grandmother will rise from her grave and smite me (deservedly). And, with respect to the above quote, I don't believe that the above disqualifies from "gentlemanhood". Being a gentleman has more to do with the manner and respect with which one interacts with others, ie, respectfulness and courtesy. ETA: Post 1000!! Only took three years... |

I do. Don't get me wrong, my dad taugh me everything a man should know, but manners were not quite at the top of the list. LOL i remember seeing an John Wayne movie when i was about seven years old. So i started calling everyone sir and mamme. Yeah John Wayne taught me to be a gentleman. But it was my dad who taught me not to take shit from anyone.

By the most important measure, that of numerous women telling me that I am, I voted yes.
My own opinion of my conduct would be: sometimes. You poll lacks that option. We've all been put into situations where cold, hard, Lumpy196 inspired sarcasm so crass that the woman rues the day she ever made your acquaintance, occur. Look at the commonplace divorce threads that get posted here; those guys are probably less than gentlemanly at times... |

I drink Scotch.  |

I guess, in the sense that I treat people nicely until they give me a reason not to, open doors for people, say "sir" and "ma'am," etc...
I don't dress in a suit all the time or give a damn about the brand of liquor I buy, however, so if that's the definition I am not. |
