Positive reinforcement is all well and good - but it sounded to me that the point being made was that doing the right thing wasn't something we should do just so we can get a thank you and a cookie or whatever. That sometimes good deeds do go unacknowledged for whatever reason. Certainly in that moment the person may be too upset to remember to thank someone.
As far as the blinders of privilege - I don't get how that is related to male bashing at all. We all should try harder to notice when our privileges let us get away with things. Whatever that privilege is - be is gender, race, biology, religion, culture.
