Chivalry is vital to upholding a functioning society in the present day. Chivalry is needed today in our society for various reasons. Chivalry needs to be brought back and it needs to become something that everyone uses. Our society is very careless at that and men and woman all do not understand the true meaning of it. Today’s society, men and women both, need to be more thankful for what have and what they work for. Men and women take too many things for granted and one day they will wish they did not. Every chance that we get, men and women need to think of the true value of what they have.

They need to count their blessings and give people the same respect, effort, and attitude back to them as they would to others. Then life will be amazing and you will not have any regrets or wishings that you could have done something better. Men and women today do not recognize what others have achieved for them. Men and women may think the main problem in today’s society is that electronics are very accessible and extremely advanced. People’s world revolves around their electronics. Nobody ever truly looks at the bigger picture. If they want to achieve something for someone, men and women have to challenge and push themselves because there are other people in the world wanting to do the same as them. Electronics are not going to help us achieve things for each other and they definitely are not teaching us how to become better men and women. Men and women may struggle throughout the day, but other people may not get all the changes that we do up to this day. So when we think work, life problems, etc. are getting hard, just remember men and women could have it way worse. Some men and women may feel alone if they are having a bad day but in reality, everyone is there for them, even God. Not all men and women have been perfect, but it will be good enough to get you somewhere in the right …show more content…

Just having him be with your siblings or parents or grandparents for the day shows that he cares and he is in it for the long run. If a man cares, he will show interest, he will give compliments, he will laugh and he will love. If a man really does love you with all his heart, he will stick to his vows. He will not let anything get in between you two. If something ever does happen, he should be there with you to communicate and to work it out. Communication is key to a relationship, so is trust also. Even through illness, either between the men or women or children, you will always be with each other through everything; nobody lets go of the

This code of chivalry all came from King Arthur. It all began with Arthur’s father, Uther. Uther gets a sword from the Lady of the Lake and this sword is named Excalibur. Later on in the battle among England, Merlin (the magician) grants Uther his wish in return for whatever he asked for. As for this wish, Uther slept with Egrain’s wife as he asked and impregnated her with his soon to be son, Arthur. When Arthur was born Merlin came for what he was promised, and took Arthur away with him, raising him. What Merlin did know was that Uther’s son was soon to be the new King of England. This soon to be king, Arthur, must become a knight and granted the right to be king.

Though values bear merit, “The Lay of the Nibelungs” teaches that true worth and longevity comes from assessing the situation and applying intellect to the code, from submitting to God, and from not cheating the system (the laws and cultural norms of the time that be).
Closely associated to the romance tradition are two idealized standards of behavior, especially for knights: courage and chivalry. The protagonist within many medieval romances proved their worth by going on quests, as many a knights went in those times, thus returning with great tales of their travels and deeds. Many modern people think of chivalry as referring to a man's gallant treatment of women, and although that sense is derived from the medieval chivalric ideal, chivalry could be seen as more than that.

In the tale, The Knight’s Tale, Chaucer made sure not to deviate away from what he saw during his time because some qualities emerged as prominent figures.

Chivalry came to exist in the Middle Ages around the 12th century.
