White Knight Syndrome

I am often amazed when reading stories on this board, TUSCL and others, about guys that feel the need to “save†dancers. In fact, some of these guys even have the audacity to do it after girls have been their laps for some time, or even when the girls performed “other services†for them.
The theory, of course, is that she is doing this because she has somehow been damaged. He, quite naturally, is that special guy that can pull her out of the pit of darkness and help her see the light of clean living.
Where does this savior complex come from? And if she is that damaged, which I don't necessarily believe (at least in all cases), then what does it say about him that he was enjoying the fruits of it moments before?

Bit of history-the United States, isolated from a european continent that had known more than an eon of war, tried in the early 20th century, to avoid yet, another, european war. But when US shipping and trade suffered, we jumped in, both feet, and fully involved ourselves in the war.
Twenty years later, again, we tried, again, to avoid, yet another, european war. When Japan sucked us in, we contributed 100 percent of our national effort to end the war.
Our heroes include The Lone Ranger, John Wayne, and Dirty Harry. We eat, sleep, and live being the White Knight. It is what we do. You might as well ask us why we breathe.
Cognitive dissonance occurs when the person holds two opposite ideals at the same time. This forces the person into action. I suspect it may be that you are right, the white knight is uncomfortable with the interactions. But perhaps he is wounded to such a degree from some event that he cannot bring himself to change, so he focuses the change upon the dancer.
A psychologist in the humanist tradition may explain it as the white knight disregarding the dancer's current condition as immature to her potential. So, he wants her to reach her full potential - which is something greater than writhing around on a fella's lap. This is because this is all he knows of her - the white knight may not know of her going to school or hoarding money to open a small business.
An ego psychology psychologist may see it as a defense mechanism. It is an unconscious attempt to prevent a self-identification failure. IOW, the white knight cannot self-identify as a lustful person enjoying the charms of dancer he paid for attention. I mean, it's hard to accept one is paying a woman for attention rather than being "something more" and so the white knight appears.
Now, obviously, MisterGay has an incredibly fragile ego (one of the reasons women cannot stand him and he has to pay) so he cannot admit these truths to himself. Thus, he seeks to kid himself that he is still a "good guy" by insisting he respects whores and otherwise white knighting for them here. Does he convince anyone? Of course not. Does he even convince himself. Nope, not even himself.
I agree with the notion that the white knight does not identify himself as a monger - he needs to be something special. More importantly, I think that he also feels the need to convince the girl that he something different.
Damned self-delusional wimps.
Okay, no more posts asking for honesty!

With all the SS I have experienced and different Strippers I have fucked I am immune to the drama crap of how down and out they are. I care mainly about a good POP, no drama, a gal who can perform in bed, no BF who knows she sees customers otc, no rush, and a gal with a car so she can meet me somewhere instead of having to pick her up in some sleazy neighborhood.
Many of these gals are on drugs or supporting bum loser BF. As long as thats the case they will pull their way out of their self inflicted problematic life.
The idea a stripper is somehow "damaged" is a cultural bias of our monogamy obsessed society. Much of their behavior is based on instinct whether its mating or care of their young. Many don't care about their kids at all as their parents or an x have custody. Somewhere in their past they cared more about drugs than their kids. No White Knighting for me, don't have time for fools errands.
I wonder where you find more of these white knight types? in the rural areas or the urban cities? In my experience I have seen more of it in the rural areas but I am just guessing.
Back when I originally posted this, social media was not nearly as prevalent as it is today. A fair percentage of this new crop of 20 something year old dancers, rather than trying to hide what they do, actually celebrate it on FB, Twitter and other places. Attitudes have changed a lot in the past 11 years. Conversely, a higher % of the new crop of mongers are emotional pussies more likely to feel sorry for themselves than they do for any dancer.
With that said, I still do see random instances of WKS, but IMHO it is less widespread than it was back then. Still worth discussing for sure, but boy how times have changed.
^Aww! So sweet! You will cum to better terms over time 😉

I think that at least one older rick thread should be bumped per week. Doing so will educate the hoi polloi of clubbing. But not too much bumping mind you. If an old rick thread was bumped every day it would only blind the normies with rick brilliance.
However, I could see the value in a book of rick. I think it could be entitled “Can I Get a Rickness”. ROAR!!!
^ Awww are you upset 😡 about your package size also? Cum over here poor baby and I will make you forget all about it! 😉
