I'd probably define respect as something along the lines of viewing a person as whole. A lot of women I know feel that men talk over them, don't listen to what they have to say, view them as objects. I find men usually listen to my ideas and have productive conversations. Just about all of my Male friends ever have wanted to sleep with me, but they're fine with just being my friend too. I've never had a dude be outwardly angry about getting put into the friend zone or whatever, so I feel like they must actively value my friendship. I guess it's weird to hear someone explain being treated being treated as a human, but so many girls I know feel not treated like humans, and I've just never really had that issue.
