Segment 1: Chivalry In Reverse
Is it practical, or even possible for a woman to be “chivalrous” toward a man in society today?
• Read Esquire Magazine’s take on how women can practice Reverse Chivalry in today’s world.
• Below – Watch the segment from the morning talk show The Catch-Up, as two of the female hosts demonstrate what they believe is “chivalry in reverse” – which includes ignoring an elderly woman in need of help, leering at passing fellows, and groping men on the street (as their husbands watch from the studio). Is this what they think of as “chivalry”?

Segment 2: Scouting With Chivalry
When Lord Robert Baden-Powell founded the Scouting movement in 1908, his first handbook, Scouting For Boys, included an entire chapter on “chivalry.” Since then, chivalry has been one of the guiding principles of the Cub, Girl and Boy Scouts. Scouting in America is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year – a great time to reflect on the history and values of the code of chivalry today!
