Women's Feelings Vs Honor And Virtue
Why isn't Honor and Virtue the most important thing to women? It's because their feelings are more important to them than anything, and men aren't people unless they're attracted to them or their brother. XD

That’s a somewhat indirect way of asking “why are they fucking people who aren’t me?”
Inaccurate as well. If honour and virtue are the most important thing to someone, they’re still following their feelings. Also, needless to say, most people have differing interpretations of abstract concepts like honour and virtue.
Mating rituals between males & females in Klingon society.
The male recites love poetry while the female throws heavy objects at him: also, savagely biting & clawing at him during the act of coitus. It’s considered a good omen for the relationship if he has a broken collarbone as a result of such. It is honourable .
Does this fatally hurt your feelings, you petaQ ?!
You didn't think for a second that it may also have to do with real, actual family values, instead of "family values"? Also, ask Russian moms, right now.

"and men aren't people unless they're attracted to them or their brother.”
My question is, why should Honor and Virtue be the most important thing to humans? The age of chivalry dates from the 11th century, which wasn't enlightened by a long shot, and its tenets were only ever applicable to the elites. Democracy has done a hell of a lot more for the human condition.

Certainly a matter of what honor and virtue are supposed to entail. I generally understand them as integrity, kindness, etc. Not exactly much room for reprisal more to assert dominance than to preserve the community from a proven malefactor, or chastity rendered as the only virtue a woman can have.

True, but I suspect its the “not being sexually assaulted” part that’s important, not the honor and virtue behind it. Not to mention, in many cultures, “honorable and virtuous” men are frequently domestic abusers, which often includes marital rape.
Either way, I think I misinterpreted the OP. I thought he was questioning why women don’t prioritize being honorable and virtuous, and when it comes down to it, honor and virtue are luxuries only affordable by those whose safety is secure.
First, define what you meant by “honor and virtue”.
If it’s about “not being a slut” then you might not get support for your views.
Confused?
