It's interesting to read threads from folks from Europe,particularly France,Holland and Scandinavia on threads about sex and value systems.On another site on a thread titled "Used for sex",a Frenchman's reply was awesome.He said French women don't veiw it the same way.It kinda proves my point about the Western/American value system being a by product of business and capitalism.
When a woman has sex with a man,she is seen as "giving herself to him" as if her soul rested somewhere in her vagina.Women inexperienced with sex are still seen by many as being more valuable for the long haul than a woman of experience.The Madonna/whore complex is ever alive and well.
I maintain that this is a throwback to the days of arranged marriages and dowries,where virginity actually protected a man's future progeny and inheritances with ties to family property,has very little or nothing to do with real feelings or committment or quality of relationships.It's an old ingrained system of values that has it roots firmly planted in dollars and sense.
Less capitalistic societies seem to have let these attitudes go somewhat.
