But the truth of the matter is, based on what I watched on those shows and even my own experience, some men want respect without having earned it. There are different levels of respect - the respect that you give because you are a respectful person, and respect that you give when it's earned. Look at some of the relationships around you. How many women belittle the men in their lives? Could it be a lack of respect that causes that behavior? A lot of the men I know say the worst thing a woman could do is emasculate them. That, to me, means that men truly want to be respected, sometimes even more so than they want to be loved. And so, as a respectful and respectable woman, I will hold the men in my life accountable to certain standards and expectations. I won't withhold respect. I just will make sure that whoever is in my life is worthy of that respect. I hope that clarifies somewhat. :-)Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272437610692264415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064153364411527910.post-9043116874338047162010-08-10T22:14:38.230-04:002010-08-10T22:14:38.230-04:00Your comments surprized me.

I can not generalize for all of us are special and should be treated that way with respect, honor and love. It doesn't matter if I am treated that way, as long as I treat others that way.Dan Askeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064153364411527910.post-71177004165668787622010-08-10T11:07:09.776-04:002010-08-10T11:07:09.776-04:00Thanks, MahG!

And never make up an idea of what someone is. But try with our hardest to see them for what they truly are.<br /><br />As for respect, its something that is earned. Though I like to think we can be respectful to everyone around us, strangers, anyone, unless they give us reason not to. But its also one of those things that can be lost. <br /><br />Like when liking someone? They think just because you like them you will find everything they do, especially the idiotic things, charming and cute. Eh, no. The butterflies can certainly fly away. <br /><br />Basically, we can't take each other for granted. We must treat each other as we would like to be treated. You don't want to clean my mess, so don't expect me to clean yours.<br /><br />Great post, Ms.G!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03703408457172858514noreply@blogger.com
