"Chivalry is dead" is a phrase that has become popular in the late 20th & early 21st centuries. The definition of chivalry originated around 1250-1300 A.D. and is a middle-English term. It was defined as: "The sum of the ideal qualifications of a knight, including courtesy, generosity, valor, and dexterity in arms."
Somehow, the term has recently changed meaning and is now regarded as a man's unwritten obligation to be kind, courteous, respectful, gallant and loyal to women. When people (mostly women) say "Chivalry is dead", they're referring to the fact that present day men are not as chivalrous as they used to be or that they are not chivalrous at all anymore. Since there is no way to prove this, it remains simply an opinion of some women.
