Open the door, can I carry that for you, do you want help, among other things. She is petite, and somewhat short, but that has nothing to do with why I do these things.

INSTEAD OF JUST AUTOMATICALLY CARRyING THINGS- ASK HER FIRST IF SHE NEEDS HELP. You gotta let people, even the ones you love- know that you are here to help them, but in order for there to be a balance in the relationship she has to show that she can help YOU when you are in need. ( your don't have to always be the strong courtious one- even without losing your manners). or on the flip side of things- waite until she ask's you for your help- then you will really know she is in need.
Overall do not stop opening the door- that is just a polite person- and that really will not make her any stronger of a person ( maybe physically) . but there maybe times while shopping in a mall and she has a really small or light bag- don't jump to say - I'll help you with that- she is capable of doing that on her own, but if she buys a new t.v set- you don't have to ask- you just help with no questions asked.-
you have to know the time and situations on where and when to help her. she may already be a strong person , but you have to also give her a chance to show that side to you.

If you want to make a woman feel like an equal, you'll do none of those things. She can open her doors and carry her whatevers on her own. I'm petite and short, and I can do all of that. If you're worried about being nice, just listen to her, talk to her, and answer her questions. Be a conversationalist. Without a good rapport, you've got nothing. (And, of course, don't try to take it too far when the relationship is still fresh — unless you both want it.)

Ask her opinion. Listen to what she says. Admire her accomplishments. Acknowlege how she feels.

you must mean independent, not independant. That does not make any sense.

Get her involved in mud-wrestling - that way, you both win.
