MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY. The ones who don't like it don't deserve it either. ;)
-
YOINK!
Mine!
-
Your woman does not like or subscribe to the notion of chivalry, Sir Ivan?
-
No woman.
Well, I had one but, as the story of my arrival here tells, she was not worthy of dying for.
No I just stole this & shared it with many friends.
-
I also have the same sentiments as Sir William. Women in today's day do not ever appreciate us Knights nor the Code of Chivalry. They can be self centered, egotistical, uncaring wenches that seek to fulfill their own personal agendas.
The ones who don't like it don't deserve it either.
I agree on that point. Wise sage say: "If they dish out unkindness and shun reason. They do not deserve kindness nor respect at all. It's that simple my friend."
On the hopeful side, there are few but many women that appreciate Chivalry and love Modern Day Knights with a passion. Those are the women that are genuine, kind and are living examples of Grace and Nobility. Even though most of ye brethren are married, engaged, in a relationship with they're lady loves. I am single but ever dreaming and patiently awaiting the day when that Lady of Virtue and grace comes right up to me and professes her love to me for being a Knight and being my genuine self. I may sound uber romantic, but I know what I look for in a chivalric maiden even a mundane woman.
But yeah, Chivalric women, you better hook me up with them! lol!
-
Hang in there, and don't ever lose that romantic quality. There are women out there who will appreciate it. It's just that some never get it, and some others need to mature to a ripe old age before they do. So finding the ones that get their heads screwed on straight in the prime of their lives is the trick. :)

My sentiments exactly Sir Edward! Also sometimes the most difficult battle you will incur on her behave will be with your wroth at those who are rude, unkind or petty and malicious to her. ;)
Yea I would see the world burn before I would abide seeing a frown upon her fair countenance.

My story.
I grew up in the SCA. I know there are worthy women out there, and I hope someday to meet one, but for now I'm not really open for love to come in. Not yet.
-
i hear a van halen song coming in....

I would see the world burn before I would abide seeing a frown upon her fair countenance.
That about sums it up for me as well, Sir Brian. For my wife, for my daughters- I would see the world burn before I would see them harmed. As it should be, for those who are kept safe by the protection of your sword and body.
-
Well Brethren, I will keep on going and won't loose that quality ever. (that is a given)
I wholeheartedly agree that the woman who is worthy of my protection and love is the soul mate of a Knight of Chivalry.
As it should be, for those who are kept safe by the protection of your sword and body.
I like that! I thank you Sir William for that and I agree on that.
Also sometimes the most difficult battle you will incur on her behave will be with your wroth at those who are rude, unkind or petty and malicious to her.
Yep, I face that kind of women every day and fight the same battles that Sir Brian graciously described.
"Even if it means taking the fatal stroke for her, the heart piercing arrow/bolt, the silent death of the rondel dagger. It would be worth it all, as long as she lives safe from harm and tells my story, I have fulfilled my Quest, I have fulfilled my Destiny."
That is what I would say to anyone who asks me on why am I a "hopeless romantic," on top of that I don't consider myself to be "hopeless," I say I am a "hopefull, Chivalrous Romantic."
-
Ah, I have been much blessed, for the Lord hath alotted me a small share in his true glory, as a maiden, whom of exceeding beauty and virtue, hath become mine lady, and I her knight unto death.
But really, I think of all those dramatic sufferings of death for one's lady to be almost easy. To truly think, it would be almost an opportunity to go out in true knightly style. I think it's the little things in today's world that will show unto one's chivalry.
But do not misinterpret me, I would gladly hand over my life to spare my lady.
-
I don't even wanna get into this subject.... But I'll never waste my chivalry and love on a woman who doesn't appreciate it. My morals are to respect others who respect me and not to waste my time on people who don't respect me.
-
Sir Nathan: You make an excellent point! I agree that small deeds have the greater value as great deeds.
Sir Ulrich: I understand you and I happen to agree with you.
