Chivalry... what would be the word for women?

They say "chivalry is dead" referring to men today. So what about women? I have had women drop doors in my face and keep walking. Chivalry's definition is "The qualities idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward women."
I would say I am very chivalrous(I guess that's how it's said?) and very polite to everyone, men, women, children, I don't kick ugly dogs and etc.
But, I haven't lived in any other centuries other than the 20th and 21st century(obviously) but
1. what word would you use, a synonym for chivalry referring to women? and 2. Do you think it is now on the decline more than in the past?
me trying to anwser my own 2 questions now 1. I guess just "polite" 2. Yes, I do think many women's manners are on the decline, same as men though, and I don't like it.

Either sex... I suppose that the current term would just be "polite". It seems that the younger siblings of most of my friends just don't respect their elders or for that matter, even their peers. It's disgusting to see an older person, say, drop something while they have full hands and as I'm rushing to help them I see at least 5 young people pass by (some groups even laughing?!).
Karma.

I'm going to agree with that, cause from personal experience it's pretty much true.
