I've pulled myself away from reading books about relationships. The type of relationships that would prepare me for a mate, things to look for in a mate and/or how to become the person I want to be with. In my season of singleness I do not want my conversations to focus on waiting to be in a relationship. Rather, I want my conversations center on Christ & His goodness. I want to use this time wisely. So I thought of ways that would stretch me to allow God to move that I may be a better disciple. God calls His disciples to make disciples Matt28:19a. So I've been reading books like How to study the bible (John MacArthur), To live is Christ to die is gain (Matt Chandler) Believing God ( Beth Moore) gods at War (Kyle Idleman) and a host of others. Just books that would better equip me to be a better witness for Christ.
There's nothing wrong with reading on how to better yourself within relationships however as Christians the main relationship we should be concern about is the one we have with Christ. If we are on one accord with Christ our relationships with other will reflect that of the relationship with Christ & His bride(The Church) .
All of that to say I agree with the title of this book. As women we want men to call, to open doors, pull out chairs among other things but we do not require or request it so if we do not uphold our end as ladies why do we expect males to be gentleman.
