There's a fine line between toxic masculinity and chivalry. Some men open the door for women because they want to honor the woman they're with, some open the door to be in control. You can always tell these men because when someone tries to open the door for them they refuse and insist on holding the door for that person. A man who wants to honor his woman would be secure enough in his own skin to allow another man to open the door for him. A man who is toxically masculine thinks that another man holding the door for him makes him less than a man. My point is some men think they are being chivalrous and manly, but really they're being insecure jerks. They're trying to live up to the standard society puts on them and they are burdened with dysfunction from their childhood. They would have to reach a certain level of maturity to be honest with themselves and acknowledge their insecurity and grow past it. Another example is when you greet somebody as they enter a store but since they're a manly man they are too tough and cool to greet you back or even smile in your direction. It's like they think this is how a man is supposed to act but really they are showing their insecurity insecurity. So to answer your question some men never reach that level of maturity and are stuck being toxic.

I think that testosterone may factor in this. But I wonder this myself. My mom's previous boyfriend lived off welfare and never even tried to get a job for 4 years until she finally kicked him out. I was expected to work a 16-18 hour shift and come home then take care of housework while he sat and watched TV literally all day everyday. He would get mad when I refused and told him to do it. So yeah I have no idea why.

They have to expect , desire, and/or demand it as they know it ain't coming through action. I often say a girl can't bail if she is kept swept off her feet and smiling, something one does, not says. Hell, half of em don't even know what respect is.

In my opinion there should be basic respect that you show ANYONE, that's just there and doesn't need to be "earned" (unless they show not to deserve that even). Basically just human decency, which seem to really be lacking these days and getting worse over time it seems. But you might be talking about something different, in which case it depends on the specific person and circumstances or relationship. Have they done anything to NOT deserve any respect? That's the question I think should be asked instead of what have they done.

The members of the male gender that expect or demand respect from women are more likely, in my opinion, to also suffer in the building and maintaining of other relationships in other spheres of his life. I would say that we all “desire” respect, especially from the opposite sex, especially from within our own communities, and the males you are referencing likely do not understand the way to navigate this desire to turn it into reality because they may historically lack the patience, social skills, and/or relationship modeling role models in their orbit. You get what you give.

I do a lot and I give her a lot of respect even when I shouldn't because I now know that she didn't respect me one bit

Definitely a give and take if you want a relationship and both should have respect for each other’s contributions and if there isn’t then something needs to change or the relationship is destined for failure. Supposed to be a team effort!
