Men joined the Crusades for various reasons, including religious zeal to reclaim the Holy Land from Muslim control and to fulfill the call of the Pope, who promised spiritual rewards and absolution of sins. Economic incentives also played a role, as some sought land, wealth, and adventure. Additionally, the Crusades offered an opportunity for social mobility and the chance to gain honor and prestige in a time when feudal conflicts were common. Lastly, some men were motivated by a desire for camaraderie and a sense of belonging to a larger cause.

Why did men join for World War 1?

Simply because they thought that 'It'll be over by christmas'. Young men were scared to miss out on the fun of war, and because of the 'pals regiments' (were most men in your area were put into the same regiment), it meant that they would no be fighting alone. Another thing that pushed them to go was propaganda. Hundreds of propaganda posters were used to persuade men to fight. And also 'White feather women' were used by the government as well. These were women who carried white feathers around with them, and if they saw a man, even on the street, who wasn't fighting, they would pin a feather onto him as a sign of cowardice, even if he had been a soldier who was home on leave, or looking after his sick wife and young children. When you had a white feather, everyone could see it. Sadly, many men died for their eagerness.

Why did men want to fight in the crusades?

Before feminist movements, men were considered the warriors and the providers. With this in consideration, women would not have been able to fight in the Crusades, whether they wanted to or not. However, men would have wanted to fight in the Crusades as they would have been considered Holy Warriors, fighting to reclaim lost Holy territory from what they considered to be heathen thieves - Muslim 'invaders.'
