Trying to turn a ho in to a house wife.

A person who is well known for his/her attempts to help SAVE a ho from a life of whoreness. Usually the old, creepy guy at a bar, strip-club (or wherever hoes hang) trying to lure the ho with money and promises of a "ho-free" lifestyle. This hardly ever works cause as we all know....You can't turn a HO into a Housewife. Only a HOUSE-HO!

A man who is insecure with his ability to get women that he seeks out women who are "damaged goods" for whatever reason (usually because of men treating them bad). This man treats them well and tries to be their Prince Charming in the hopes that the woman will fall for him in spite of his attractiveness or other downfalls. He thinks this is the only way he can find love.

A male who has sex with a prostitute and feels sorry for her afterwards questioning her life choices. He usually offers her encouraging advice and support to get her out of the lifestyle.

Any sucka that takes a ho'ish woman and trys to change her life around. Trys to turn a ho into a housewife.

E-40 the rap artist coined the phrase captain save a ho.
Where a guy will take care of a goldigger. pay for everything. pay for goldie to get her nails done, hair done, get a cellular hooked up. the guy will be a sucker for the girl and take care of paying for her kids. He will come to the girls rescue like a superhero in attempt to get some play. Dine her and she will take advantage of him. he would actually say I will save a ho baby I am here for you.

The expression, "Captian Save a Ho," is one coined and used by sex-workers, especially strippers, to designate the man who often comes into the club and, although he buys dances and utilizes dancers' services, he is constantly trying to "save" them, although they never asked for such an intervention. His methods are always underhanded and suspicious, because he at once asks dancers, "Why are you in this business? You could so so much more. You could be somebody," while at the same time buying dance after dance and coming in night after night to enjoy their work. This type of customer is the least favorite amongst exotic dancers because his intrusive questions and holier-than-thou attitude is not at all welcomed by hard-working women who find it to be very condescending, patronizing, and hypocritical.
