As has been pointed out elsewhere, benevolent sexism is a technical term in the field, and is just as applicable to situations where positive traits are assigned to men as it is when positive traits are assigned to women. It has nothing to do with judging about the moral status of the sexism.

Can you point out some examples of such usage for men? Any paper I've found so far defines it specifically in terms of women.

But it doesn't apply where negative traits are assigned to men, which is what this study partially shows.
