They know they can be caring, affectionate, sensitive and nurturing, attentive and good listeners to their wives. Ultimately, this led men to educate, elevate, and emancipate women. It should come as no surprise, therefore, if pop feminists attack men for not being chivalrous. Chivalry provides many benefits women are reluctant to give up. But dependence has a price.
Traditional chivalry requires men to die for women.
It imposes the obligation to work at dangerous and dehumanizing jobs to support women, to take responsibility for initiating relationships, and more. All things most women refuse to do. Those who find thin the benefits of dependence, however, understandably desire the apparent advantages traditionally accorded men in education, work and society. But pop feminists want it all for free. They want all the benefits of independence without any of the obligations that go with it.
