An Always Male character devoted to enforcing the standards and principles regarding how "real men" act and behave, whether it's around women or otherwise. One of his top priorities is maintaining the comfort, safety, and reputation of ladies, thinking that the idea of a woman being One of the Boys is plain old wrong. One must always be respectful and considerate to a lady!
His ideals go beyond common courtesy. This can lead to serious problems considering how closely related this attitude is to Stay in the Kitchen (whether the writers or the audience realize it or not), or if someone is willing to take advantage of his beliefs.
Any attempts to resist or otherwise convince said character that his principles are archaic rarely come up or fall flat on their faces. A rare success will result in a wake-up call to the man that he might be trapped in the wrong era or the wrong culture.
If he practices what he preaches, especially if it's in terms of romance, then he will probably win over the other characters like a natural Prince Charming. If one of these characters is female, then you have Single Woman Seeks Good Man. If his ladylove is similarly old-fashioned, they become a Lady and Knight couple. Some hand-kissing may be in order and no puddle shall go un-coated.
If he's not just a gentleman but an Officer and a Gentleman, he probably belongs to an order of knighthood and follows the more classic code of chivalry. In that case, see Knight in Shining Armor. He might also be a Sharp-Dressed Man. If he has a more uncouth friend/rival/associate of some kind, then he is part of a Noble Male, Roguish Male duo.
Contrast Stay in the Kitchen, where the male character may act on such old-fashioned ideals in an even less supposedly noble manner, and Would Hit a Girl, where the male character abandoning all thought of preferential treatment is considered amoral. Compare Prince Charming Wannabe.
See also Code of Honor, for chivalry in general.

Looney Tunes: The witch doctor Dr. I.C. Spots from the short "Which is Witch" takes off his hat and steps aside, when three lady natives — and Bugs, disguised as one — walk by. (Unfortunately for Bugs, his disguise slips.)

In Aussie cinema, truckers are often romanticised as modern-day cowboys who stand up for the underdog and are always polite to women. Examples include Stacy Keach in Road Games and Mory in Savages Crossing.

Stardew Valley: If courted, Elliott fixes up a rowboat and takes you out on the water to confess his feelings. Elliott can be usually found by himself, either reading in the library or standing outside watching the water. The man spouts some really flowery romantic lines without a trace of self-consciousness. Depending on what you tell him about your taste in books, he may in fact write a romance novel dedicated to you.

An episode of Highlander discussed this with Duncan reluctant to kill Kristin, a female Immortal (who had helped him become a gentleman in the first place), and Methos mocking the entire chivalry attitude. Methos took it upon himself to deal with the dangerous woman.

An episode of Corner Gas has Brent start treating The Lad-ette Wanda more nicely and not making her work as hard when she shows up to work in a skirt one day. Lacey theorizes that seeing the skirt caused his male protector instincts to kick in, and Wanda tries to test this by looking and acting more and more feminine. It seems to work too, except when we switch over to Brent's perspective, we find out that the real reason he's treating Wanda so gently is that her out-of-character behaviour is making him think she's going nuts.

Frankie Kazarian displayed this in TNA, during his run as a baby face anyway. Even when he was embroiled in a feud against Robert Roode and Traci Brooks he wouldn't tolerate the former mistreating the latter, and as it turns out, Miss Brooks was appreciative of being shown how a "real man" treats a lady, when before she acted as the vamp to any man feuding with Roode who was foolish enough to show her kindness. Kazarian's gimmick later was taken by Tomko.

Harry Dresden of The Dresden Files is a proponent of this trope, which annoys Karrin Murphy-since she had to fight her way to the top in a man's world, she feels like she's being treated like a weak, effeminate lady. Harry, in turn, likes to annoy her by treating her like a lady. And Murphy knows it. It ends up turning into Belligerent Sexual Tension, and Dresden does largely drop it as the series goes on.

Dracula: Van Helsing and the rest of the heroes decide it's best if Mina Harker stays safe at home while they go out each night vampire-hunting. They do it because they think it's for her own good, in her best interest, the right/gentlemanly thing to do and they'd be cruel and reckless if they included her. It backfires and they learn their lesson.

James Bond:
In Thunderball, the lack of this tips him off to the fact that the widow of an assassin is actually the assassin himself — "she" opens her own car door, rather than letting any of the surrounding men do it.
Casino Royale: The two times Bond and Vesper share a meal, he stands whenever she leaves the table, a classic rule of etiquette.
In Spectre he stands when Madeline approaches the table, also a classic rule of etiquette.

Law & Order. A murder suspect of all people stands when Anita Van Buren enters the interrogation room, insisting, "A gentleman always stands when a lady enters the room." He's elderly and likely harkens to old-fashioned rules of etiquette. It's that same charm that enabled him to cajole the address of his victim out of the man's secretary, information that should never be given out. (Helps that the guy was an Asshole Victim who ripped him off).

At ROH: The Homecoming 2012, January 20, 2012, the ROH World Tag Team Champions the Briscoes (Mark and Jay) faced the thrown-together CHIKARA pairing of Hallowicked and Jigsaw in a match where, if the CHIKARA team won or outlasted the 20-minute time limit, they would get a title shot at a later date. As the match went on, CHIKARA founder 'Lightning' Mike Quackenbush made his way out to support Jig and Wicked. He was followed by Frightmare, Dasher Hatfield, the Colony (Fire Ant and Green Ant), Saturyne and UltraMantis Black. Jay confronted Saturyne, with Dasher coming to her defense and telling Jay to respect a lady. Jay threw Saturyne in the ring, with Fire Ant flying in to distract him. This led to Jigsaw superkicking Jay for the pin.

You can do this in Bully to get girls to kiss you (or you can forget about kissing them and pinch their bottoms instead). Keep in mind that this game is about a Boarding School of Horrors. As for Eunice, she doesn't expect even this from the player: she just wants a box of chocolates.

In the Codename: Kids Next Door episode "Operation: C.A.K.E.D.-F.I.V.E.", a Victorian era Kids Next Door operative (aptly referred to as Numbuh 19th Century) is thawed out in the present day after being frozen in an ice cream explosion. Due to the time period he is from, he has a patronizing attitude toward girls and doesn't believe they should be in the Kids Next Door as they might hurt themselves "playing" with weapons. Though his views are outdated and sexist, his intent is to be gentlemanly and he states that in his day he was renowned for his chivalrous assistance to the ladies.

Parallel Paradise: Youta is a firm believer in this: even after a rude wakeup call that he's far weaker than the warrior women of the parallel world, he still insists on putting their well-being above his own and protecting them to the best of his ability. In fact his entire quest, one that would end with him picking a fight with a Physical God should it pan out, was inspired by his disgust at the curse the God of Deep Jealousy put on the girls. This entirely average kid is willing to Kill the God for the sake of the gentle sex.

Souma of Ensemble Stars! comes from an absurdly old-fashioned family and as such acts like he was Born in the Wrong Century, including when it comes to old-school rules regarding chivalry. This is sometimes played as virtuous, such as in Tanabata when he admonishes Kaoru for suggesting that Orihime and Hikoboshi would be unfaithful to each other because marriage is a sacred union that must be taken very seriously. However, it's also sometimes just played for laughs - in Quarrel Fes he gets a bit flustered by Anzu's openness and insists that men and women must not be physically touchy after the age of seven, but Anzu just teases him over this.

Professor Layton has of course the titular Professor Layton himself. No game that he is in is without mention of what a True Gentleman would do such as his catchphrase, 'A true gentleman leaves no puzzle unsolved.' A fair number of those consist of giving special attention and help to young ladies in need. He doesn't get in the way of ladies fighting for themselves if they are capable, but it does affect why he tries to not have Flora, a lady that is his ward, out in dangerous situations she has not proven capable of tackling alone.
Directly talked about in Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask where his teenage best friend, Randell, tells a young Layton that 'Chivalry is dead' after Layton escorts Randell's girlfriend, Angela, to Randell's house. Angela hadn't minded though and clearly it didn't stop Layton.

In Thunderball, the lack of this tips him off to the fact that the widow of an assassin is actually the assassin himself — "she" opens her own car door, rather than letting any of the surrounding men do it.

Kate & Leopold: Hugh Jackman's character is a nobleman from 1876. He is accustomed to standing when a lady leaves the table and is often mocked for things like his idea of the culinary arts. He becomes more modern and learns that obligation will trump integrity. He also woos Kate with a moonlight dinner and dancing on the roof, breakfast the next morning, etc.
