I think a lot of it probably comes from the way Thor himself respects women? He admired Jane for her intelligence and bravery, he explicitly supported Sif becoming a warrior, in spite of convention. He's never belittled or condescended to any woman. (Well, not for being a woman, anyway, but for being mortal. And even that didn't last terribly long.) Even if Asgard isn't some feminist utopia, Thor himself hasn't shown any overtly sexist tendencies. I'd imagine Frigga wouldn't have stood for it anyway.

As for the way they regard magic --- eh, maybe it's handwave-y on my part since we haven't seen a broad range of Asgardian magic or magic users, but it seems to me what Asgardians look down on is trickery, not magic per se. Which makes sense for a warrior culture that prides itself on honor. If Loki used his magic in a more straightforward way instead of using it to deceive, he probably wouldn't have copped so much flack. Also, until I'm told otherwise, I'm going to assume the stunt Odin pulled with stripping Thor of his powers and laying the "worthy" clause on Mjolnir was also magic, in which case, it's definitely not the sole domain of Asgardian women.
