because they are insecure about themselves and have to covet their daughters' sexuality like it was theirs to save again..If I had a daughter and she met a really good guy it would be up to her, if he was an ass without any class I would be protective.

good point, and I think a lot of fathers do generally jump the gun more toward the side of protecting her from an the "asses w/o class".
i think it's largely due to the importance of her choice in choosing a good mate for the offspring which will ultimately be the future of her dad's gene pool.
to take an unconcerned approach could be a shot in foot if his daughter were to end up picking some loser who likes to enjoy lots of different women (as one example).
That kind of outcome could result in poorer caretaking of the offspring and thus less chance of survival for the daughter's father's gene pool. I think that is one of the biological reasons for his often excessive protectiveness in her younger and more foolish years, and generally around those years with more irresponsible mate candidates too.

What an odd thread to start Tyler. Has a mob of angry fathers come to your door with torches and pitchforks to lynch you for the wicked ways you had with their daughters???
Alright, you boys aren't married and I assume have any kids (that you know about I guess) so I'll explain it to you from a father with a daughter's perspective. All guys are over sexed perverts and typically have sexual thoughts pop into their heads probably +90% of the time no matter what they are doing. If you have a daughter you know that she is going to be eventually viewed by another dude in that way as well. Especially other boys in school. My daughter is in the preteen years so I haven't had to experience boys calling her up, coming over to the house and wanting to take off with her somewhere. You basically don't want two hormonal raging teens running off to play before putting the age old passed on through the generation fatherly intimidation factor to the would be date. Since we are all guys and we all went through the same thing when we were younger its just passing the torch to the next generation of future overly protective fathers by instilling the fear so rightfully deserved into their daughter's boyfriends.
As far as it being biological. Probably is to a certain extent as the parents are going to protect their young. When it comes down to it though if someone is going to experiement in their sexuality it is pretty much their own business. However, I do believe that when you do it should be done responsibly and especially only if you are able to deal with the consequences of what the primal instinctive reason for having sex is... making babies.
That's one reason why dad's are protective. They don't want to have to pay for and raise grandchildren for a single mother.

they are protective beacause they know how perverted guys are
also no father that cares would want his daughter to be known as a slut

When you have kids, you become protective. I'm a mother of a son and I am damn protective of him and when he starts dating the girls better watch out.

Excellent explanation LeDaemon! One of the most frightening things a dad experiences is the first time he notices older men "checking out" his daughter.

I'm not in the exact same situation as LeDaemon as far as having a daughter goes, but I do have a little sister who's 11 going on 12, in middle school, and if I do say so myself, exceedingly beautiful and athletic. So I'm not so much an overprotective father as I am an overprotective brother. I know how guys are at this age, they're almost all raging hormonal perverts who really just want to start adding to their gunbelts to brag about to their buddies.
I suppose since I'm so much older than my sister, it almost feels like being a father, I just know that whenever I hear my sister or her friends talk about boys, I can't help but feel that real uncomfortable twinge. And I know my dad is already getting his Anti-Teenage Boy Shotgun nice and polished for when my sister enters high school, since he for sure is definitely doing all he can to protect my sister until she's totally ready for the real world. As for me, when the boys come knocking, I'll be standing right next to my dad, cracking my knuckles menacingly.

i got insight from another forum that this initimidation process mostly serves as a quasi-replacement right of passage (generally for the male who is also growing up and has to prove himself as a good man), particularly in societies that lack a meaningful right of passage for this coming of age.
