For instance, the moments before a fight where two near equal fighters will dance around each other waiting for one to make the first move because they both hold reservations about facing such a formitable foe.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
I respect people who respect me.

As far as relationships go, I read somewhere that women use sex to get men. (They dress a certain way, wear make-up, perfume all to attract men) they want to meet Prince charming. they have unrealistic standards. They want the perfect husband, someone who will sweep them off their feet.
On the other hand, men use love to attract women. they care about her feelings, share their feelings, they tell her what she wants to hear to get close to her.
When the relationship goes sour, women feel used and betrayed. Men are indifferent.
For men relationships are about sex. For women relationships are emotional.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
I see a few men at work that I respect. Not many though.

The one I have the most respect for goes home to a wife with alzheimers (?) everyday and gets really happy when she knows who he is. No one knows this but me and one other person at work. He is a phenomenal(?) person.

I see little dedication to women from men.

Anytime I hear of a woman happy in her marriage, I know she hasn't been married long and it isn't too long before she comes in crying.

Life is better alone, trust me. I've been married twice.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 744051

Wow, what a real man. She married a good one.
When my mom was in the hospital, I saw a man feeding his mother and combing her hair so gently and sweetly, I was immediately attracted to him.
Real men care for and nurture their families.

Today, most men would just replace a sick wife with someone younger, while most elderly women end up caring for sick husbands. So many of my moms friends don't want to marry again.

I think the bottom line is... until a man or a women KNOWS SELF... you can not be seen as some one you will respect... why... the NEEDS of the human Personality and EGO will cause them to BEHAIV# in ways that project an IMAGE of being Needy or so macho that you are turned off.

A person who knows them self.. sends out that VIBRATION of WHOLENESS within self... if not... they are sending out that VIBRATION of NEEDING something from you.... Sex, a mom, a user of the people and things around them.

If men want whores, that's what they will get (a worthless whore who treats them like crap, demands, demands, demands, while giving NOTHING in return), Not a woman who respects them for what they are... You can't have it both way's men....

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
Respect and admiration aren't really the same to me. They can have to do with one and other and can go hand in hand but they are not the same thing.
Respect for your fellow man (or men or women) just sprouts from treating others how you yourself wish to be treated by others. It has to do with decency and integrity.
Respecting ones personal space or others peoples rights to voice their opinion even if you don't agree with it.
Agreeing to disagree without falling to cussing or namecalling is also a form of respect.
I can respect people for what they do or how they act but that doesn't mean I can respect anyone who sais one thing but acts the opposite way.
Not gossiping or backclapping about people, also a form of respect.

Hmm ,
I actually find it a rather difficult question.

As far as respect for men in general, same issue really.
I respecty -my- man cause other wise he probably wouldn't be -my- man lol.
I respect him more than others but that doesn't mean I disrespect anyone else.
I may not be liking them but that doesn't mean that just because we differ in opinion that I don't see men or women alike as human beings with their own qualities and faults ... just like me.

I have flaws, I was just as surprised as you when I found out!

I get what you are saying I think.
That's why I consider myself quite lucky with the relationship I'm in. We are there for mutual support, understanding and caring. completing eachother where the other one is lacking , its never asked tho, only given

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
I think with reality shows like Bad Girl's Club and Jersey Shore this question would speak for itself and answer No, women don't respect men and pride themselves on being cougars and preying upon the hearts of younger men's innocence.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?

been there done that and to add icing on the cake, I took care of my dad the last two years of his life ... and lost all respect for MEN completely and forever - self-centered, demanding dick heads - the lot of them - tossers

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
First let me define respect in the way that i view it as a man.

Respect is not acting kindly to someone out of courtesy or putting on a happy face and being polite to someone that your realy personaly can't stand. No, Respect is much deeper than these examples.

The best way i can describe respect in its true form is to compare it to real life examples. For instance, the moments before a fight where two near equal fighters will dance around each other waiting for one to make the first move because they both hold reservations about facing such a formitable foe. This is my definition of respect. Respect has nothing to do with being polite it is how you generaly feel about a person. So if you respect someone it should be a combination of a feeling of admiration and a hesitation to compete in the same qualities in which you andmire this person for. Please notice that hesitiation doesn NOT mean fear.

Now my question to the women. In this defenition, do you realy respect men anymore as a whole?

Obviously there are your few examples that do not deserve respect from anyone because of their actions and those few that are so admirable that you can barely help but respect them. But I am NOT asking about indavidual casses. So please no "Oh some i respect but so many are lossers." I am looking for the general feeling here.

What do you feel in general about men in this modern day and age.

no they all know that they can use sex to get whatever they want. it's sad, really, more than anything else.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
that is a nice definition of respect.wheter women ever respected mena sa whole or just needed to pretend so in order to survive, i don't know, but that is offtopic since, your question was about now anyway, so. i am not all women, but i can speak for myself, i really do not care for men as a whole, i do have a lot of feeling of respect such you described for my man, and i consider mysefl lucky that a man like that loves me and that is all i need to know....there are some other men that are respect worthy and in that they resemble my hsband, but wheter these are minority or majority i really don't know. i just know my husband and to be honest not curious about other men.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
Sorry but the only way I can describe when and how I respect a man is he must be well dressed, clean nails and a polite calm attitude, then he will gain my respect.
Much like a very profession white collar man will seem to be.
These kind of men usually look, dress and act like they care for themselves.

Now, Give me the usual run of the mill kind of male that I see day to day, I rarely respect them but, I am never outright rude. For some reason they tend to be beer bellied if white or Hispanic with dirty nails or, if black flashing bling or have more money invested in their cars than in their dental work and skin care and they usually are found destroying their hearing playing bass bump music. Shows these types of men have little smarts and do not care for their bodies.

A person needs to show they really care for themselves before I give any real deep honest respect to them.

I'm caring for my old, widowed, stroke victim Dad too 23/7, and he shows me zero respect, he treats me like hired help. He doesn't realize that I gave up my career and my social security points to be at home with him. Not like SS will be there for me but I won't even qualify for medicare. Dad doesn't care one bit. The only time he even act interested in anything is when it is a meal time. He never says "Thank you" even.

Make that 2 nope and what she said. You took the words out of my mouth.
When I left my husband he said we should have another child
not because he want to try to heal the relationship but to tie me down with another child and wanted me to still work full time.
They want a slave. Mean while he's sleeping with every bitch at his work. Yes I said bitch cause they knew he was married.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
maybe OP has psychological issues regarding women. men with healthy attitudes towrds women do not example respect of the weaker sex to stronger one (physically) by using fist fight metaphors.in order to respect a male person, i need to be absolutley sure that he will not use phisical force to intimidate me, NO MATTER WHAT. (i never ask for things i do not gice, i use the same discression with children)
i cannot for the life of me rspect a man who expects me not to slap him if he is being phisically pushy towards me because he is stronger than me and can choose to slap me back.exactly because men are physically stronger they should be careful not to put their hands on awoman if she asks them no to touch her, if a man persists on it after he is beong told not to touch me, i will, as lucifer is my witness slap him, if he retourns the favor that men has lost any shred of my potentila respect for him forever.
so if this is OPS case he should look into his general attitude towards women and seek profesional help if need be.

Re: Do women respect men anymore?
let me add, from what i've seen respect is abundant still amoung the male population to both their male counter parts and female. But from the media i have noticed that women are more and more being portrayed as having no respect for themselves or others in general and i want to see if it has filtered down.


Are you saying that the behavior of society mirrors TV?

What if a women does not watch TV and she still disses men based on their general behavior. Respect is something earned and not given across the board just becuz Lois respects Peter. How dumb do you think women are?

we all know the influence media has. it's blatent and clear.

so, you beleive its is earned. does that mean you do not in general respect men unless they give you good reason?

just trying to get an answer that will fill the form.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 782661


K, from what I've seen, women will do just about anything for love. Men will do and say just about anything it takes to get laid and that's just not respectable behavior in my opinion.
