Elevator Rush Hour Etiquette

Dear Diary,

Question.  When it's "elevator rush hour," do I have to be polite and do the whole "ladies first" bit?

This morning the elevators were running really slow.  I was standing there for about 5 minutes (no joke), and then a group of people showed up and started jockeying for position.  When the elevator finally arrived I jumped in without consideration towards gender because I thought for sure if I didn't I would be left waiting another 5 minutes.

I think in those situations I am justified for not letting the ladies go first.  Would you agree?
