Loyalty, not blind loyalty.
Bravery? You can be brave and dead wrong at the same time.
Protector? Women can protect men too.
Providing for your family? Again, what works isn't whom does what, but that it works.
Mentoring? Still not a gender issue.
Solidarity/friendship, commitment...... See point #1 above.
Critical thinking? I think that is where it starts, and good communication skills. But that is with any relationship.
