The spirit of Cavaliers arises from the fact that women are regarded as things rather than themselves. This is a masculine self-critical ritual that strengthens women as weak and simple creatures that can not achieve simple tasks such as opening up doors and opening doors. In the feminist equality movement, the chivalry path should remain the past. The spirit of the knight should not be important now, but still should recognize the gesture of goodwill. Regardless of sex and sex, it is said that such kindness is from men to women, on the contrary, from one person to another
The chivalry was developed in the days when women were plagued by heavy loose skirts, corsets, clumsy shoes. Most knight's actions show deep love and necessary attention. But now I am wearing jeans for most other women in the West There are few people wearing corsets.
But for me, this does not mean that the spirit of the knight is useless, nor should it be completely abolished. Several things are no longer practical (for example men wearing puddles and jackets), they should not. As long as you have permission or have short contact in advance, you can say "Can I borrow your coat?" Or "I can help you in the chair" I will. IMPORTANT, if you try "cigarette" to make others uncomfortable or degrade, you miss the knight's spirit
To a certain extent, the spirit of Cavaliers should be used as a general good habit. Because I want to hold it for men, children, old people, etc., I have the possibility to open the door to another woman. I do not get angry when a man has a door for me. I do not know that there are things that only familiar women can do, such as withdrawing a chair, and not ridiculous. When a woman enters the room, he must absolutely quit. I am mainly pleased.
So yes, the Cavaliers are out of date, so we should update it. To destroy and adjust certain parts and accept other people (men and women) is merely polite.
The knight's spirit is dead! ... Maybe that is not the case. It depends on who you are talking to. For some people, the politeness and attitude that we often associate with the Order are considered to be outdated relics of male domination in western society. For other people, the chivalry is a popular antidote in today's world, which is rude and intolerant. The boundary between the two methods dealing with the image of the "gentlemanly attitude" of the Order is a clear discussion on whether the Cavaliers should be allowed to decline or should be resurrected by our younger generation .
Following the disaster of World War I, the chivalry was regarded as an outdated code of conduct adopted by men to "save" women. Part of the reason is that the "dress sword" has lost its position as part of a gentleman's wardrobe and contemporary military clothing has replaced that position. Because the male virtues related to this concept were idealized, these women began to challenge it with the name of gender equality. Also, in the political movement of Suffragette, the traditional knights are considered to be responsible only to men, not males, which is considered a loophole in this code of conduct. Doug Phillips points out "The Birkenhead Drill".
The concept of the knight appeared in France in the 10th century BC. This word comes from the word "Chevalier" in French in Cavalier. This is coming from "Cheval" meaning "horse", so I am creating the word "cavalry". Knight ethics at that time represented the fusion of Christianity and military morality. Loyalty to the church and barbarous behavior against all enemies. Over time, the night knight code disappeared. It was not until the late 18th century that the Cavaliers returned and became romantic. That the knight gentleman began to form the concept we know today. It is now called "respect and courteous behavior, especially behavior for women". Since the emergence of feminism and feminism, the problem of the knight has begun. Is Cavaliers really aggressive? Does the woman feel as if he can open his own door and pay his restaurant fee now?
