What makes a guy respect a girl?

Question

sugarchateau · Accepted Answer

Once you find your emotional maturity and learn to respect others because you’ve learned to respect yourself. You learn that humans are just human... just like you.

And when you have all of that light in your eyes, no disrespect will be in sight.
You will own your stride, own your body, own your own mind and people can still disrespect you.. but that’s them not you. Some people just don’t respect themselves, so of course they won’t ever respect you. Some say strike fear into others to be deserving of respect... and if a guy is sexually assaulting you... I agree. Stab him in the eyes.

I think it all starts with the way a woman/girl projects herself. If she respects herself, then she will inspire respect. It all begins with you! You will be treated the way you treat others, if you have self respect, self love and consideration for your surroundings... then that’s what you will get from anyone not just a guy.

Well a girl who is known for her chaotic ways in terms of sleeping with every guy you could possibly know, and who gets drunk everyday, who treats people like they're below her, who is known to take and leave or receive and leave without actually caring for another soul, a girl with no ambition and intelligence to realise that reality requires focus... and if she is not looking to find her place in this world... that she is the only one on this earth is a person I would never respect until they change they're ways, but that's how I see it, some might like the things I don't like.

I think for the most part, being mature... but it is more the upbringing of the boy, not the actions of the girl. Just look at the responses here, most are judgmental and expect or demand very specific behaviours from women that are just personal preferences of the people passing judgement. There is no respect there for women. Women don't earn men's respect in that way.

LawShark · Answer

That is way to generic of a question which does not have an answer. What MAKES a guy respect a girl? Nothing. Nothing can make a man respect anyone. Each man is different and has his own morals, values, beliefs, and things he finds of interest. Even so, some men had poor role models as they were raised and they have learned that women don't need to be respected, so no matter what you do you won't get what you want.
But if there is a specific guy you want to impress and have him respect you, then you need to find out what kind of guy he is, what are the things that he shows respect for, and show interest in some of the same like-minded things. There's no real answer though. Every man is different.

CubsterShura · Answer

When she is nothing like the dirty fantasies that he has. Men love the idea of women out there showing a lot of skin and all but not in their own wives 😂😂

Jk. But men telling women to have self-respect yet watching/going to women who seemingly lack it are the kind of people I personally don't respect.

johnmspaghetti · Answer

When they demonstrate deserving it. Courtesy upon first meeting long enough to gauge, and formal interactions of course. Usually everything's A-okay, but rarely I've met the reeeally pompous, narcissistic, vain kinda woman, and once courtesy wears off I make my distance, and if that doesn't work /then/ she gets the attitude.

Miristheiss · Answer

A person with integrity and class. Someone who isn't foul mouthed and speaks with dignity and not like trailer trash, someone who is honest, has self respect, modest, values relationships and commitment over fun and promiscuity. Someone who stays away from drugs and doesn't get drunk. Someone who values herself.

Anonymous · Answer

I don't know about the guys but I personally respect everyone, even If I dont have a good opinion at first I give them a chance because time and time again I learned that there's more to a person than how they dress or the kind of words they use , and to give them the benefit of the doubt and respect them regardless of what you think of their actions is important.

Bluedream13 · Answer

Don't rely on sex/sexual attraction AT ALL. Dress modestly, let your personality, not your looks do the talking. Look good, of course, nobody is saying don't look good, but that has absolutely nothing to do with respect. A good looking girl whom a guy doesn't respect is but a whore to be abused. Any girl with genuine merit that brings something REAL to the table besides a vagina can be respected by worlds of men.

vishna · Answer

I think the first thing is how a guy was raised and the second thing is how a woman carries herself. People feed off each others energy, confidence really is important.

kamalravi25 · Answer

Respecting women depends on the things that a man taught to himself, how strong his conscious is, who much kind he feels for any girl. It doesn't mean girls should take advantage and become mean, every person's behaviour depends on his/her life experiences and the lessons taken from it.

thatguyfromtoronto · Answer

Her honesty, the authenticity of what she says... many people today lie, cheat, are manipulative or have this I don’t care about your life approach. I’m not going to respect a girl if she’s self centred or completely narcissistic by posting tons of pics of herself online but then belittling others.

FýrdracaDócincel · Answer

To sum it up in 3 points:

1.) She isn't easily skittish of me.

2.) She isn't a slave to pack-mentality via her friends and family.

3.) She isn't afflicted with what I like to call "feminine pride," meaning she doesn't rely on pettiness and cowardly tactics.. then try to pass it off as being "strong."

Dim1213 · Answer

If she dresses modesty. Shows she is confident enough in her body that she does not have to show it off to get attention.

ADudeThatWritesStuff · Answer

Kindness, ambition, loyalty—things most everyone has already said. Kindness and the respect of others in particular. If a woman is rude to others or judgmental of people she doesn’t know, respect for her usually skyrockets downward. Same goes for men. If a man is making fun of strangers or ragging on a waiter/waitress, they’re not worth hanging out with.

Red_Arrow · Answer

Honesty, faithfulness, caring. If she is someone I can completely trust and depend on, then things like how she dresses and so forth do not really matter.
