no they do not. but its not just the woman its the kids too.
we do not live in a culture of respect, the result is 56% marriage failure. after the castration-- the burning question is-- do people respect themselves after they have gotten rich thru divorce?

No, I never got any respect...

My wife and I hailed a taxi, we got in and she said "I want to have sex in the back seat. I said "OK". She said "You drive".

No respect...

Actually that not true, if you knew me you would agree. That fact is that our culture likes to disrespect authority. They have been making men and especially Fathers look like bumbling idiots, saps and morons for years in movies, jokes, and stand up routines.
That trickles down. People in general don't respect them selfs let alone others. If you give people respect and its returned both parties benefit.

I agree that our society has become more disrespectful in general, but on a personal level respect must be earned. Just being a husband or father does not guarantee respect.

Get over yourself. Alot of the Disney cartoons and the movies made FOR kids, the mother is DEAD. At least they portray the fathers alive, idiots or not. Do you have nothing else to think about except who your wife slept with or if men get respect? You should get a hobby.

My husband and I have a healthy respect for each other, I have found this to be true with all the siblings marriages also.

This being said, we have a guy staying with us now that has no respect for women what so ever and his wife kicked him out. My husband has even had to warn him about how he talks to me. (he just doesn't want me to jackslap him lol)

Does he deserve the same respect my husband does? No.

Like 2mares said, respect is not a given, it must be earned.
