So you WANT a man to treat you like a lesser being?
It's showing some consideration and bit of affectionate attention. Women do a thousand similar small things for men, but it's not called out for what it is. I'm sure your wife does them, but you observe them as affection ad not chivalry. There is no female word for it.
