Perseverance, when I meet men that despite being put through it. Comes out the other end stronger with a smile. I can’t help but feel tremendous respect for them.
When other dudes stand up for people. I have a lot of great guy friends who stand up for what’s right, which is respect for all people. That’s what society should be based upon.
No instant respect. But I won’t disrespect you either. However, if you prove to be diligent and show a good measure of integrity, you’re getting there to earning it.
I may not like it personally but I respect it immediately for social reasons, or I may respect it because the person is not good but I should not disrespect anyone in front of everyone. However, there may be differences of opinion on this matter.
Showing respect to everyone they meet. Over time the respect you feel might wane, but even then the respect you show them should be the same as what you hope to be shown. Do unto others and whatnot.
Honestly in 2025… if another random at a gas station or whatever says thanks if I hold the door open for him or even just walking by one another and a smile .. people are so angry anymore so any kindness and you got it from me
