bodleing2: I read recently that it's from the days when people would throw rubbish,, including human waste out of the upstairs windows onto the street. The man being a proper gent would then be the unfortunate recipient...

She didn't tell me that...
But that wouldn't make much sense because the person nearest to the curb would not necessarally be in the line of what's 'dropping' ... confused

stranger1978: What the hell
I'm in Hamburg,Germany
Lee is in England.
How this might be the same person?
Lee is allegedly in Cardiff, Clwyd, Wales.

A place that doesn't exist, unless he has two homes in Wales. One in the North and one in the South.

They would be aiming for the gutter, the person nearest the kerb would be nearest the gutter. But I'd be more inclined to believe the splashed by passing traffic theory that I've heard many times.

dunno

Yes I see what you mean!

I always felt my children where more protected if I walked nearest to the curb ... even when it wasn't raining!
I suppose it would work too with a man feeling protective ... wine

It's visible in someone's action. I think kindness is an essential part of being a gentleman, otherwise it's only for show.

To attract a gentleman, attributes are probably similar. Yes, there are a lot of chancers and guys that are gentlemen by proclamation only, but it is easy enough to figure out someone's character (and not just behaviour) when spending time with someone.

I know when I meet one. wine

I'm not sure that would necessarily follow. I don't think there are any rules to say you have to give your exact location, but it does seem a bit odd.
