I've been thinking about two hypotheses that seem to contradict a common Red Pill claim that female virginity is highly valued by most men.
Hypothesis 1
If female virginity were truly one of the most valuable traits to the vast majority of men, I would expect many more women to strategically preserve it. Assuming people respond to meaningful incentives, why would most women willingly "lose" such a supposedly valuable asset with average men from their social circle instead of waiting for the highest-value partner they could realistically attract?
It doesn't make sense to assume women are simply irrational. A simpler explanation is that virginity is not actually as valuable to most men as some people claim. Other traits (compatibility, attraction, personality, emotional connection, etc.) seem to matter much more.
Hypothesis 2
Red Pill often argues that high-status men can choose almost any woman they want. If that's true, I would expect to see a clear pattern of top-status men consistently choosing women with no previous sexual or romantic experience.
Instead, many famous athletes, actors, entrepreneurs and other high-status men publicly end up with women who have had previous relationships, marriages, or even children. Of course, individual cases don't prove anything, but I don't see the predicted pattern.
So my question is:
If female virginity is truly one of the most valued traits by most men, why doesn't that preference seem to appear consistently in either women's behavior or in the mate choices of men who supposedly have the most options?
I'm genuinely interested in counterarguments, especially if they rely on empirical evidence rather than ideology.
