In fact, anyone who receives this type of disingenuous respect has not earned it, and has the propensity to demand it time and time again either through intimidation and bullying, or believes the individual is entitled to be respected while demanding it from others. When you start demanding respect from other people and not giving them the respect they have so rightfully earned, that says a lot about the individual doing the disrespecting. There is an old saying that goes something like this:
"First deserve, then desire."When individual forces another to give him or her the respect that has not yet earned, then that in itself qualifies as non-genuine respect, because it is not genuine and the person is faking it.
Below is an example of genuine people and fake people with the element of respect being mentioned (Click the link):
Genuine vs fake people with an element of respect thrown in
Also, if you respect people who are only 'credible' (which by the way can be tossed around in the air without caution or consequence of using the word all too willy-nilly), you are missing out on genuine people who you may consider 'not credible' or ' not reputable', who are genuinely and respectfully looking out for your cottage cheese butt.
If something works and it's not 'credible', then it needs to be 'credible'. Think about that the next time you tell someone or call them not 'credible', 'discredited' or not 'reputable'.
So in conclusion, genuine respect cannot be demanded, it is naturally given to someone who has earned it, whereas fake respect can be demanded and is a nightmare to maintain for the foreseeable future.
