Gawain should probably tell her to STOP THAT IT'S DANGEROUS but she's already halfway on his gorilla shoulders. It's not like he'd be any faster than her, so what else is he supposed to do? He has no choice but to support her with all his might! ]

He stands perfectly still, holding onto her ankles once they're on his shoulders, and does his best not to look up. He is a man of virtue, so it's only natural that he would have virtuous thoughts that definitely do not involve looking at a woman's behind. There are matters more important than carnal vice, and certainly his internal narrative wouldn't spend an entire paragraph trying to defend his integrity, which is definitely most genuine. Rest assured, Gawain, honest and principled, is merely doing his best to provide a foothold from below.
Also he's not an ass man.
