It depends on what you mean by "endure".

I always look to Jesus as the guiding exsample. He endured all kinds of disrespect during his crucifiction, because he knew that this was the only way to bring about our salvation. But at other times during his ministy he had very strong reactions to disrespect. Such as when he cursed the Pharisees or drove out the merchants from the temple.

So I think if you're being disrespected you should ask yourself: Does it serve god and my neigbour, if I let the disrespect continue. Or is it an insult to god and myself as an image bearer?
