Seems like a pretty reasonable approach to me.

I've never understood the emphasis society tries to put on virginity. Like, losing your v-card is built up as this huge, important thing that totally changes your life, then it happens and it's just kind of a ".....wait, that's it?" moment.

Discriminate breeding on the females part is important because it let's the species get better instead of letting every bum water down the gene pool

This is a horrible mangling of evolutionary science.

Biologically speaking, no one cares about whether a certain action is advantageous or disadvantageous to the species as a whole; they care about whether a specific action is more likely to get their genetics passed on. Purely from a sexual perspective, promiscuity is generally evolutionary advantageous, because the more children you have, the more likely one or more of them will survive to breeding age themselves.

There are other reasons why monogamy or selective breeding can be advantageous to an individual, but "it's for the good of the species" does not generally factor into evolutionary breeding patterns.
