Why do men white knight? I just don't get it. Give your answers here.

I don't think men necessarily do it to get laid, but more to ingratiate themselves with females and get their attention. Because many men who operate exclusively online are failures, it follows that they will be far more hungry than your average Joe for some interaction with shitcunts; with the bonus that they can get acknowledged by women online who would solidly ignore them IRL.
This whole dynamic is why WKing is much more of an observable phenomenon online than it is IRL.

That's interesting, never thought of that. So you think they do it for attention? Like as an "in".
Would you say that white knights lack morals? I'd imagine that a guy who uses white knighting to get closer to women is actually a less honorable type of man, despite the popular belief that white knights are supposed to be good people.
