They do have a mother-son thing. But it's not about saving oneself for one's future wife. No, it's about respecting another man's future property. In other words, it's even worse.

Didn't I hear the word 'independence' in there? Why don't they have a mother and son function also. They could call it the Oedipus ball. So, a girl needs affection from a male to be complete?
