“Chivalry is dead” is doing a lot of heavy lifting for what might just be… a full bar. One woman took to TikTok in outrage after she and her friend had to squeeze onto a single barstool while three men occupied their own chairs nearby for over an hour.
With dramatic audio demanding bans and justice, she panned to the allegedly seat-hogging men who, inconveniently, were just sitting there minding their business. The internet, however, wasn’t exactly rallying behind her crusade for courtesy. Viewers were left wondering why strangers owed her anything at all and how audacity takes a person very far in life.
Is Chivalry Dead?
Bri Tyler (@bb_tyler) definitely seems to think so. The topic holds a heated debate, and her comments section has the dial turned up to 10. So far, Bri’s clip has 264,000 views and over 600 comments. Her caption refers to the death of chivalry.
Her text overlay reads: “Three men sitting at the bar for an hour as we’re sharing a seat to eat dinner.”
She films herself and her friend on the same stool and then pans the camera over to the men she seems to be referencing. They seem to be unaware of being filmed. Bri chose the viral audio of Kendall Tolle saying, “Get them banned. We don’t do that here. Oh now I’m pissed. Find out who that is, get them banned.”
Other Instances of Chivalry Being Non-Existent
As Bri is enduring scrutiny for her opinion over chivalry’s (non)existence, the topic as a whole seems to be prevalent. The Mary Sue covered a story where a woman knew the man was a “red flag” because he didn’t open the door for her on their first date.
She claims he “half-props” it open, but comments said he should’ve opened it and made her walk in first, then he would follow. Another story that had a lot of discourse was when a man sat in his car while his girlfriend pumped the gas. The TikTok creator saw the situation and said, “Dude got his girl pumping gas is crazy lol.”
Recently, the Mary Sue covered a viral TikTok where a woman posted a picture of her and her boyfriend, whom she met on Hinge. In the post, she claims that he didn’t pay for their first date, but she was glad she still gave him a chance. The viewers, however, kept thanking her for “keeping him off the streets.”

Viewers Pull No Punches
The comments section is quite heated. Most viewers give it to Bri cut and dry. One viewer calls it “The princess pandemic.” Another simply says, “Girl I’m a feminist. Almost, misandrist, and I still don’t think they need to give up their bar seat.”
Another echoed, “Don’t make me agree w men.. they were only there for an hour.. not 4.. maybe they aren’t done?”
Another straightforward viewer says, “It was on this night she realized the world doesn’t revolve around her….”
“So you failed to make reservations and that somehow became their problem?” wonders another.
Another viewer shares, “Looks like they’re eating and enjoying their time. Why would they give up there seats for random women.”
Some try to get more context. “If they are just drinking they just grab the drink and move around but if they are eating I would stay seated,” says one viewer. Bri replies, “They weren’t eating! Their plates were the same when we got there.”
One man comments, “If you’re not my woman. I’m not giving up my seat. Wear better. As a stranger I owe you nothing.”
And only a few defended Bri. One viewer says, “ooooh these comments scaring me. im scared……………” While another says, “Girl ignore the comments I understand.” Bri responds, “They’re so mean ty.”
