I read on this forum so often that women "aren't respected" or they "deserve respect." Respect is earned. Being polite to another is just good social conduct but may or may not include respect. How can any random guy respect any random woman he doesn't know? Do women think their femininity automatically commands respect?

Why do so many women confuse respect with politeness?

It depends on how you define "respect." Some do define it as "politeness", and that is o.k. Why argue the point? Is it worth making a giant gender issue out of it?

I don't think it is the femininity that commands respect. I am a person, a human. I don't want to be treated with less respect because of my femininity. I don't want to be paid less, I don't want people to make jokes about me or assume things about me. Just because I am a woman.
You can make jokes about men, it is true, but not because of their gender.
You can be very polite to someone and dismiss them at the same time.
You don't understand what women mean by "respect" if you confuse it with politeness.

Politeness should come from respect, treat a female stranger the same way you would a male one. Not that hard is it?
