WHY?!?!

Because “for what” doesn’t make sense
For why would he have done that?
the cause, reason, or purpose for which know why you did it that is why you did it.
Why is an excuse to avoid something that may be good for you. Instead, say "why not". Take risks. Live life to the fullest.
But if you read a definition on this site, you have permission to say "why" out of horror. Be honest, people referred the word "no" with sex, and they give inappropriate language when defining the period.
