Contemptuous term used by incels to criticize any man who calls them out on their misogyny. Since incels only believe in transactional relationships for sex with women, they can’t envision any other reason a man would defend a woman.
Man1: She’s a whore
Man2: Wow. What’s wrong with you?
Man1: what are you, some kind of White Knight?

A misogynist who treats women like weak damsels in distress, and takes it upon himself to "rescue" them to boost his own status.

A White Knight is a man who, in an attempt to gain affection from women typically acts in one of these ways:
1: Flogging
This involves extreme self-hatred and hatred of other men, often shaming themselves and other men for being male and praising women like gods.
2: Protecting
This involves stepping in and essentially cocksucking any woman who they percieve as being "attacked" which often includes being insulted or even disagreed with.
Not all men who stick up for women are white knights. The mens rea is what matters. If its just to be nice, then thats not WKing. If its to gain attention, affection or even favours then that is WKing.
As it turns out, many White Knights turn out to be far, far from the protectors they appear to be, and many White Knights will react explosively upon being turned away, often even more angrily than the men they seem to hate.
The name "White Knight" refers to the idea that these men see themselves as humble guardians and knights always protecting princesses and maidens, sometimes refered to as literal white knights.

Woman: I love coffee.
Man: No, coffee sucks.
White Knight: What is this? You dare disagree with that fine maiden? Blasphemous! Take that back now, foul being!
Woman: My ex-boyfriend sucks.
White Knight: Im so sorry for sharing a sex with that horrible beast. So many other such devils lurk in the dark. Men truly are subhumans and i feel ashamed for being one of them.

1. A character found in Lewis Carroll
book "Through the Looking Glass"
2.A character type (characteristic) found in literature, media, etc and can sometimes describe a persons style in life. People described as white knights usually martyr themselves for a greater good or another person. They take on the pain, anguish, challenges, and consequences another would have face. They sacrifice all they have to give for the peace and love of others. Essentially a white knight is a hero who in most stories ends up dead or worse.
Some white knights are great crusaders and heros who have a just cause. Some have no real self esteem and are trying to make there lives worthy.
