I don't think anyone advocating chivalry is actually referring to the historical nitty-gritty oppressive aspects of it. But rather, I think they are espousing the positive courteous aspects of it. All the stuff that Seaver mentioned reminds me of the Marine Corps. In that sense, how could chivalry be viewed as a bad thing? So, maybe we need to see chivalry in a modern context as opposed to this archaic form that no one is advocating but that naysayers keep going back to.
