Yes, there are men out there that will respect a woman when that woman is due respect. One bad experience with an individual man isn't enough to change that.
Personally, I don't respect women just for being women, same for men. I think respect should be earned. Ofcourse, a lack of respect in my opinion does not equal disrespect.
I personally don't like the idea being pressed that women must be respected under the assumption that us guys have this automatic respect for fellow penis wielders. Hence why I don't like the idea of chivalry, I see that as special treatment for no reason other than owning a vagina even though the original meaning of the word wasn't exclusive to women...Funny how as time goes on it's only the aspect of helping women that people talk about when it comes to chivalry.
But I digress. Most men do respect women that are due respect, however just like men, that respect needs to be earned.
Do you respect women as human beings? That is the question. If you notice a woman walking around who looks like she has nowhere to go would you offer her shelter out of the kindness of your heart, if you had the means to help? Or would you feel that she owes you something, namely of sexual nature, or secretly hope that she offers sex in return for your kindness?
But yeah plenty of guys that will do nice things without expecting something in return.
also lots of nice girls that will do nice things expecting nothing in return.
You did remind me of this one time I almost ran face first into a door...
this guy walked threw it and I was right behind him and boom let the door close right in my face.
I was pretty pissed off at the time lol.
who just lets a door close like that? Im so used to doors being held open that I dont expect people not to do it.
I do pay it back however I also hold doors open for people walking behind me.
But you talking about chivalry did make me think because I would not be with a guy who didnt hold a door open for me. I literally walk up to a door and wait for my bf to arrive and open the door for me. Its kinda weird if you really think about it... I could open the door if I arrive at it first but I just dont.... im spoiled :P
Are there any men who truly respect women?

Ofcourse women are human beings. I probably wouldn't help just as I wouldn't for a guy. And no.
I lost it at "fellow penis wielders"｡ﾟ(TヮT)ﾟ｡

To add to this I tried opening a door when me and my bf had to run to the gas station quick. He said "what are you doing? I would have gotten it." Lol
