What Is A Woman's Equivalent Version Of Chivalry Towards A Man?

[SolitarySolace]

[MisterWack]

Being kind, considerate, and honest & loyal to her man as he would to her.

All I’m going to say is back in BC ages, men had to hunt a mammoth at 6 in the morning with a spear & slay it putting himself at risk to put food on the table and get her a nice fur coat for warmth…. Then it turned to plowing the field for your Feudal Lord to hopefully be reincarnated in the Caste System so your peasant wife could live off the land with you…. Had to come home from the shores of Normandy to start a family with your wife who worked in the factory to support the war effort to allow you to win.

I’m just going to say this, modern day romance / Chilvary is easier to deal with so I’d advise any man who Bitches about “today’s modern women”…. Just remember the sacrifices humans had to do to maintain their love life & survival of the species, then compare to how easy you have it today by comparison.

[MisterWack]

As a man, I would want my woman to just be there for me, support me through thick & thin, be honest & transparent, open up her feelings to me and not be afraid, reassure me that life will get better, respect my hobbies / interests as I would do for her all checkboxes marked. She doesn’t need to do anything more, I love her for the woman she is.

[Dongie]

Back rub. Dinner on the table. BJ. HJ. Dressing up in lingerie. Making sandwiches for him and his pals during the game. Mud wrestling with her sexy friends in the back yard.

[RingOfFire]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Dongie]

That's a beautiful wife there, aye Fire?

[Dongie]

@RingOfFire

[RingOfFire]

Weird... I replied to your second to last comment above but it's gone. Gave it a 👍

[Dongie]

@RingOfFire

It's still there.

[Dongie]

Oh, I see.

[Dongie]

I LOVE that car. Is it a Caddie?

[RingOfFire]

I'm thinking maybe an Oldsmobile.

[Dongie]

I would like to ride in it. It's beautiful!

[RingOfFire]

It is!

[DishLady]

Traditionally chivalry is generally rewarded by the lady’s favor, smiles, gratitude, a kiss or token (scarf, lock of hair, book, pic) for the guy to keep, etc.

A great thing to do for starters is to smile and thank the guy, allowing him to be an actual man… If he’s sticking around I just put a plate of home cooked food in front of the guy and watch him smile. If he’s planning to come around regularly I’d have to make him an offer he can’t refuse… 😂

[DishLady]

@bloosk It's actually a challenge to find the guy who will be chivalrous (in real time, no bs, no "side piece" games, etc.) nowadays.

[DishLady]

@bloosk Yeah, it sucks for both sides. I wasn't implying that women are amazing and guys suck. There ARE a few good guys out there who will go all out for their gal -- and be respectful of women in general -- but they're few and very far between. The "grab them by the p--y" Round 2 administration is a pretty clear indicator that chivalry is basically dead.

[DishLady]

@bloosk wtf are you talking about, dude? What free ride?

[DishLady]

AAAAH... Some bitch spit in your whiskey and now you're a whining troll. Ok, buddy, just say that from the beginning. Go back to the kids' table.

[Dongie]

@bloosk

"Go get a job." Hah, if you only knew. 😂

[Summeroflove]

A home cooked meal is very nice. But things like smiles and hugs most of the time born people should be enjoying that…. I mean

[DishLady]

@dongie don’t feed the fucking troll.

@sunmeroflove I hear you.

[Dongie]

I see a target I strike. He's a sneaky smarty-pants.

[Lowly_Grumper]

@DishLady the part about the pussy grabber isn't necessary. The only pussy DJT ever grabbed was his own.

Literally is a biologic female whose wifebands all look like dudes.

Elections are also staged so don't think that many people actually support him.

[DishLady]

😳🫣🫣

[Dongie]

Fuck you grumpy old fart. I bet you never said a bad fuckin thing!

[Lowly_Grumper]

@Dongie LISTEN HERE YOU GLITTER-SNORTING GARGOYLE WITH A LISP! @bloоsk is a CRUSTY SOCK FULL OF EXPIRED PUDDING who thinks they’re hot salsa but they’re really just WARM APPLE JUICE IN A DIRTY MUG! If that soggy waffle of a human ever barks at you again, tell ‘em to go SUCK A MARSHMALLOW THROUGH A STRAW MADE OF SPAGHETTI! Their opinions are as useful as a FLAMINGO WEARING SNOW BOOTS IN A SANDCASTLE! You’re a RAINBOW-SPITTING T-REX ON A SCOOTER and they’re a deflated whoopee cushion at a clown’s retirement party! Stay SHINY, you CHAOS MUFFIN! Throw confetti at their dreams and ride off on a RADISH!

[Dongie]

Did call me a kid the other day you old son of a bitch?

[Dongie]

I would that every fuckin hypocrite that has judged Trump for that pussy comment had somebody sneaking around recording them. I bet we'd hear worse from all of them.

[Dongie]

@Lowly_Grumper

[DishLady]

@Dongie and @lowly_grumper
Can everyone please calm tf down? You're wearing out my little phone battery today... Please take this schoolyard shit outside where it belongs. Thank you... Sending you both happy calming thoughts.

[Dongie]

Surr dishy.

[Dongie]

I mean sure thing DishLady

[MisterWack]

Very wise and amazing answer
“I’d have to make him an offer he can’t refuse” got me lol

[DishLady]

@MisterWack ;)

[Altheavas]

Being emotionally available to him, care for him mentally, his health, his growth, share and encourage him with his interests. Mutual understanding will leverage the needs of the relationship. Respect him as a partner, and in private and public views. Just know that you’re a couple, you’re both constantly working on each other, and you’re each other’s unspoken standards.
Men/women who tend to their partner will show without telling others.

[MisterWack]

Nailed it.

[SolitarySolace]

Not all women do that though

[Altheavas]

@SolitarySolace
A lot men don’t think like that either. So…! A few of us do..
That should be from both partners.

[Summeroflove]

Well a lot of narcissists want to complain about something a example is chivalry…. They want all the benefits of it without any of the return. But there is no helping them

The honest answer is showing return effort that’s genuine sure some people show disingenuous effort including sone men who may do all of these things as well.

But it can be as simple as cooking for him. Doing the same things for him as well

[ShellyB]

Prob. the equivalent would be advising on things like what to wear or helping with communication whether bc he asked you to, or bc you notice a misunderstanding. JMO!

[ShellyB]

I also wrapping gifts for him most of the time, does that count lol.

[RingOfFire]

You make a good point there. I'm very talented mechanically so wrapping a gift should be no problem. But the problem is I have absolutely zero interest in doing it, zero patience for doing it and I have no idea what looks good.

I mean if I didn't have a woman to wrap the gift for me I would just give somebody the gift and not wrap it at all. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ShellyB]

@RingOfFire It is pretty easy, you just plan where to fold and you kind of measure it so you know you have enough before you cut, but yes he also doesn’t care enough to learn :)

I was a mall elf for two Christmases so those sklls pay off now! lol

[RingOfFire]

You definitely acquired the skill! Lucky guy!

That's how guys are. Details are not their thing. They think about the big picture.

[bolverk]

There's no reason why a woman can't be chivalrous.

Despite popular belief, in the Knights Code of Chivalry, gender is only really mentioned once. Most of it has to do with being honourable, helping the weak, and being merciful:

To fear God and maintain His Church
To serve the liege lord in valour and faith
To protect the weak and defenceless
To give succour to widows and orphans
To refrain from the wanton giving of offence
To live by honour and for glory
To despise pecuniary reward
To fight for the welfare of all
To obey those placed in authority
To guard the honour of fellow knights
To eschew unfairness, meanness and deceit
To keep faith
At all times to speak the truth
To persevere to the end in any enterprise begun
To respect the honour of women
Never to refuse a challenge from an equal
Never to turn the back upon a foe

Though it would be a very rare woman who would follow the code with any meaning

[Dongie]

You MUST be British! I like it.

[bolverk]

@Dongie You are perceptive! I try to live by the Code. It is not that easy these days.

[Dongie]

You are a gentleman bolverk.

[bolverk]

@Dongie One tries, one tries!

[Dongie]

Right that!

[Beckybooboo]

I think I subconsciously show off for him. I dress nice for him and smile a lot, compliment things about him I find interesting. When I really like them, I like to have them over for dinner and try to be a good hostess and I guess let them know I can cook lol and actually enjoy it and would cater to them in a relationship.

[northerngal]

Chivalry is a sign of respect for a woman... there are many ways a woman can show respect for her man. Its always a two way street. For example if a man holds a door for me a simple thank you is a sign of respect and appreciation.

[bloosk]

Lol that's all? Really?

[northerngal]

@bloosk Yup. A real man knows his worth. He does not need me to remind him.

[bloosk]

Lol ok. Ifyousayso

[Caroline91]

@bloosk She said it's a two way street and gave one example. There's a lot more to it. So, what is your answer? I'd really like to know...

[Crazyced]

@Caroline91 Saying thank you is not the woman's equivalent of chivalry. There's a limit to how low you can put the bar. Saying 'please' is respectful. Nobody in their right mind would call it chivalrous if it wasn't accompanied by concrete actions.

[Caroline91]

@Crazyced You are right. But responding with appreciation is important. There is much more needed in reciprocity and a good woman knows and cares about being reciprocal. However, it takes a different form than what men provide for women.

[bloosk]

Ho1 about you just go submit to a man. That's women's chivalry.

[Crazyced]

@Caroline91 'However, it takes a different form than what men provide for women. '
Yes and this is literally what OP is asking people to elaborate on. I'm note sure why but there seems to be this struggle to give concrete examples.

[Caroline91]

@Crazyced I was more specific in the opinion I posted. But I hear you asking for concrete examples, so here goes. Show appreciation for his actions…Thank you is the minimum, even better when combined with a sincere compliment. If a man you don’t know opens a door for you, you could, in a friendly voice, say “Thank you so much! I appreciate what a gentleman you are.” and smile into his eyes. For any man in your life, pay attention to his comfort. Make sure there is a comfortable place for him to sit and offer that place to him. Ask if he is hungry…would he like something to eat. If he is tired, don’t keep him up talking, or doing other things; tell him to get some rest. Show respect by not being dismissive and really listening to him when he speaks. Provide a peaceful environment and give him space when he needs it. If there is a difference of opinion, do not argue, whether you know this man or not. Talk. If talking doesn’t resolve it, let him be by politely disengaging. And for the special guy in your life, make sure you always have his back…do not correct him in front of other people or belittle him. Ever. Keep his confidences private. All of that is between just the two of you. Be the one he can’t wait to get home to. There’s a whole lot more, but this is becoming a book! Hope that meets your criteria for being more specific and giving some concrete examples 🙃

[Crazyced]

@Caroline91 I'll let OP be the judge since it's their question but these are definitely what I would call good concrete concrete examples!

[Dongie]

You know, about 25 years ago, I had one tell me she didn't need me to hold the door for her. 😔

[Dongie]

That is the answer of a very devoted wife, Cece. I appreciate every word. 🥲 even if others do not.

[hahahmm]

The answer is in the past and older generations. Spend time around any woman over like 70s and you will notice that they are always 1000% polite towards men and express appreciation. So they show respect and appreciation.

Guys already know this on at least a subconscious level which is why no guy takes a woman seriously if she can't be loyal. It's connected to respect too.

[LiamJHayden]

Is there one? Chivalry goes back to the code of conduct of knights, and in some sense seems to have had to do with the fact that women were considered more valuable than men. Why? Relatively few men - many died in combat - were needed to quickly repopulate a society as long as there were enough women.

[Caroline91]

Being kind. Being appreciative. Caring for his peace and comfort. But, most importantly, always having his back.

[Dongie]

His back-rub! 😏

[Caroline91]

@Dongie 🤣

[MisterWack]

@Caroline91 Great answer as always Caroline though the back-rub is good too @dongie lmao

[Caroline91]

@MisterWack Hey, Wacky! What's your answer to the question? I'm sure it will be interesting at the least! lol

[MisterWack]

@Caroline91 I would want my woman to just be there for me, support me through thick & thin, be honest & transparent, open up her feelings to me and not be afraid, reassure me that life will get better, respect my hobbies / interests as I would do for her all checkboxes marked. She doesn’t need to do anything more, I love her for the woman she is.

That sort of thing.

[Caroline91]

@MisterWack Yeah! That sort of thing.. lol... I glad you have each other. 💖

[MisterWack]

@Caroline91 Thank you! 👍

I didn’t know how to end it so I put “that sort of thing” 🤣

[Caroline91]

@MisterWack Which, in your wisdom, covers a multitude of things! 🎶 whistling to Peter and the Wolf...

[Ladsin2]

Chivalry is the code of the horse. There's no feminine equivalent I'm aware of. As far as the Chivalric virtues we're more or less talking about there is a comparison. Women are expected to be kind, caring, loyal, pious, courteous, generous, disciplined, etc. Being a lady pretty much.

Interesting little tidbit. Lady means "maker of bread" and Lord means "protector of bread". I'll bring the wheat, just need a good woman to make it into bread.

[Caroline91]

@ladsin2 That is such a great answer. I love it!

[Ladsin2]

@Caroline91 Thanks, I thought so!

[Phoenix98]

Actually chivalry doesn't really have anything to do with women your thinking of being a gentleman.

Also the female equivalent would be acting like a lady towards a man.

[Joshydavid25]

I would say that there's not really any equivalent, because it was more of a code of honor among Knights.. Just being nice back helps.. Or bringing out more of that feminine charm..

[Pet68]

That's not the way chivalry works (or is supposed to work). However, I have had many women do things for me, like open doors, so... would that be an example of it?

[NicholasRedone]

The irony is : as progressive person "she can get her own door" 😅😛 👋🏻 👋🏻 👋🏻 and that's why I'm single 😔

[msg321]

I will just write about its logic. a man makes a woman feel her femininity by chivalry so as a response a woman should makes a man feel his masculinity

[Priya99999]

Praising his beauty/ spoiling him with things?

[Crazyced]

Physical compliments are nice for sure. But tell your man you're proud and impressed by the stuff he does and you'll have him floating in the air

[Dongie]

Yep, every man loves to be praised on his looks. Especially when they are not very pretty.

[Uglygaypoorcoward94]

Having the house in order and a meal prepared when I arrive home from work.

[MrTaboo]

being a lady, and letting the man be a gentlemen.

[captain_voidwalker]

There is none chivalry requires both honor and selflessness. Women are incapable of either

[blackeagle007]

I never heard of chivalry from a woman. What’s that?

[Sonorous]

Not keying his car

[RavVid]

to be lady like

[Zack-Bann]

We all know the answer…

[purplepoppy]

Hospitality.

[genericname85]

being submissive and nurturing.

[grega239]

There is no such thing

[fantasticass]

I cook for him. ❤️

[lorenzomichael]

Stop being bitches

[Crazzyyworld]

Giving vagina

[SolitarySolace]

What about for the ones who don’t like vagina and aren’t gay?
