Don't think so, Foolestroupe. Opening doors, raising hats &c, sure ~~ & at my age of course I still do that. But cloaks over puddles only applied to one, probably mythical, occasion re Walter Ralegh & Eliz I. & nobody ever roamed the streets looking for ladies in light dresses (probably demanded by fashion anyhow)for the purpose of offering them their overcoats, did they now? You are being whimsical, aren't you, in your rubrications of "chivalrous behaviour"?
