White Knighting/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Sears Optical has a series of commercials where someone misunderstands what is going on because they need new glasses. The latest one I’ve seen is That’s a Mannequin, and has a half blind husband guarding his chunky immodest wife’s dignity from the leering eyes of a mannequin.
This modern day twist on Don Quixote sums up the farce that is modern chivalry:
A clueless white knight guarding non existent dignity from eyes which didn’t want to see what the “lady” was inflicting on them in the first place.

—"Modern day chivalry." by Dalrock.
