Is she my woman? Is she the property of a friend of mine? Then why would any man step in to avenge her getting insulted? Yes, "insulted" - she wasn't under continued attack - any "stepping in" would be to avenge her honor. She's a danger-hair who don't need no man.https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1453407009718603776 …

You would come to the defense of any woman of dignity in the pubic square back in the day, unless you were a troublemaker yourself. Or just a noisome slacker. But that ain’t how society works now.

You would do that because of a two step cascade: By default she was some man's property - her father, her husband Her father or husband was a decent man that would protect your woman if she was in trouble and on her own Neither part is true today.

True. Though the salient point is that their fathers/husbands needn’t have been anyone you knew. And you didn’t have to know for sure they’d reciprocate Of course, if it happened in a small town you’d know. But this custom went beyond communities where everyone knew eachother

That's the high trust part - that you could assume that some random guy was a decent, upstanding man.
