His ideals and beliefs are a wee bit outdated for modern times (like his disdain of Saber's royal status for being a girl) but thet doesn't mean those are wrong, his support for Waver is moving and he even managed to do the impossible, something no one in the entire franchise has managed to do: earn the favour and admiration of Gilgamesh xD!
Rider's disdain for Saber's way of kingship was not about her gender. It was about how she sacrificed herself for ideals. When he called her a little girl it was more about her being young and foolish than her being female.

If you want someone who was chauvinistic towards Saber because of her gender, look no further than Gilgamesh.

And speaking of him, Kirei earned his favor as well.
