I was paraphrasing Robert Heinlein, who in [[Time Enough for Love]] wrote something like, "In a family argument, if it turns out that you're right, apologize at once!" This was advice from a man with a 2,000-year-old woodie -- er, I mean a 2,000 year old man named Woodie or Lazarus or maybe Theodore.

Another Heinlein character said, "I'm at my most serious when I'm joking."

I'm still trying to work out if your comment of "when a lady acts in an 
ungentlemanly way a gentleman always apologizes!" is meant to be 
tongue-in-cheek....
