Why does she worry about a lost marriage, but not him?

Do only women get married these days? In which case shouldn't it be another woman she missed out on?

This comic makes no sense.

The comic's rationale is founded on elements of Red Pill thinking, the gist of which is that today's party girl with her choice of temporary bedwarmers is tomorrow's lonely, wine-swilling catmom, while today's friendzone sucker is tomorrow's good man with his choice of permanent partners.

A lot of men WILL NOT touch a woman who isn't a pure virgin. In contrast a lot of women are turned off by a man who hasn't had sexual success in the past.

Proof?

I don't know, maybe how every single culture in history was extremely prudish about female sex and banned polyandry, but polygyny was perfectly acceptable? How society used to put such a high value on female virginity? Men have always refused to fuck women who've fucked other men before. So much that ancient societies devised rituals to make a woman prove her virginity to a man before he would marry her. The reason is they wanted to keep track of bloodlines. A woman can always be sure that her child is hers, but before DNA tests a man could not. I can't fathom why that's such a big deal but it is.

I don't know,

I don't know either, but it sounds like bullshit to me.

It's more common. But it's not every single culture. Tibetan culture, for instance was ploygymous and polyandrous.

Men have always refused to fuck women who've fucked other men before.

I don't recall ever doing that. Or even thinking to ask.

So much that ancient societies devised rituals to make a woman prove her virginity to a man before he would marry her.

Makes some sense in ancient societies when you didn't have birth control or antibiotics. Of course their "proof" was based on the untrue claim that all women bleed on their first time because the hymen is torn. But the cartoon above is set in the modern world. I don't believe any of this proof is required now.

The reason is they wanted to keep track of bloodlines.

Probably not. The reason is they didn't want to die of syphilis. If the problem was bloodlines it would matter not at all what she did before marriage, and only what she did after.

In the modern world our instincts are still millenia behind. A man doesn't always know why a woman being a virgin is so important to him, he just has the very strong feeling that he should be the only man who's ever touched her. It's just a part of their sexuality.

Nah, I've never thought that.

Not every man does, but a lot do.

[–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I doubt it.

Just look on this site if you don't believe me. And literally all of history.
