Chivalry thoughts revisited

Historically Chivalry was a particular code of conduct that Knights were held to These qualities are idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward women. Common courteous behavior in a nutshell. Many men lack manners as a result of never being taught by an older gentleman. Also some men who DO practice chivalry don't display it simply for not having respectable women to attempt chivalrous behavior with. And my all time favorite. ......the women (not all) with the stank attitude that expect it but don't deserve it and the women (not all) that won't accept it based on previous interactions with assholes who fake it for phone numbers lol.

As a man who DOES practice chivalry I was taught by my father to always treat women with respect regardless of any circumstance. This sounds fine just saying it but in real world situations it's hard for us grown men to discern when to display our manners. This is because with so many differences in women out here and upbringing we can (at any given moment) meet one who is not receptive, doesn't want it, demands it, disregards it or in rare cases actually enjoys it and simply says thank you.

So many factors are included in this occurrence that I can't touch on each aspect but for right now these are just a few. Also we must take into account the role the "independent woman" movement introduced. On one hand you have women with the mentality that they need no man for anything, but still want us to display chivalry. ......wrap your brains around that one folks lol. Then there are the men who treat women right JUST to get sex and with that creates extremely cautious women that are skeptical of men with manners. So for us who DO act in genuine ways it's very disheartening when trying to be a certain way without knowing what comes next from the woman. So as we can see there are aspects from both sexes that add to the diminished idea of chivalry. But trust me it's not dead, just some bitches messed it up for grown women and some mitches screwed it up for grown men.
