jes got the wrong idea pf chivalry

chivalry got warped

chivalry is a code that applies to everyone, ie no one gets special treatment

chivalry is this, you treat others the way you want to be treated, and you are free to treat others the way they treat you

no exemption for women or age

be an ass to someone, it comes back to you, you dont get spared from it if you’re a woman or kid

Well, if chivalry got warped, it got warped a looong time ago. Go look up “courtly love”, that set of ideas was incorporated into chivalry by the medieval era.
