I believe in individuals and individual liberty. But I also know that my pov is often regarded as "radical" in many aspects.

Chivalry has to be mutual. It is "only" a form of respect in my eyes. I simply don't get what the point of any relationship with procreating as a possible aspect should be when there is no ability to compromise on both sides of it.

With obligations, it is the same in my eyes: You can only take obligations, "society" or your peers put on you, as far as you personally accept them.

Once there is a mutual agreement on things that actually are agreeable, I really can't follow all this pressure people put themselves under, when looking for a man-women-relationship.

Most people do not understand that. They act almost entirely on instinct, and blend in more and more with the hivemind. And they will coerce dissidents into joining them.
