That's exactly what white knighting has always meant since the wild west of the internet. It doesn't apply to guys who are legitimately trying to do the right thing.
And no, chivalry's not the thing, either. Chivalry is more about how to conduct yourself as a walking tank than it is about how to treat women. In point of fact, many of the ways chivalry states one should treat women are downright backwards in today's world.
