Does the concept of honor exist in this day and age? Is it possible to have honor, or to be honorable? Just what exactly is honor? What does it mean to have honor, is it like pride?
Honour does not need to be explained to a man.
It never existed to begin with.

Whoa, whoa...hold on. Is it "Honour" or "Honor" I always saw the word as "Honor" but I guess the spelling variations have the same meaning, don't they?
Also what do you mean it does not need to be explained to a man? Are you implying men should just have an innate sense of what honor is, that it's ingrained to us genetically and it's just something we know and have?

What about the people who claim it does/did? What about people who still use the word in this day and age?

But can you explain why you think honor doesn't need to be explained to a man? Can you answer my question in this post? >>29576232

This is the right answer. When you think of historically honorable people (e.g. knights) you think they have some internal moral values that supersedes themselves, or something. In reality they were the same assholes that exist today they just had stricter rules and stricter punishments for breaking those rules, or they had something to gain by appearing "honorable." Or more likely they never acted that way in the first place, but it made for a better story if they did.
