Social mores developed through both rational and emotional processes over long stretches of time, so I think that makes sense. I have to say, it really infuriates me when people claim to be rational, as if it somehow exempts them from the effects of emotional attachment.

I am not at all attributing that to you, by the way, it's just that I'm surprised at how unaware people are of the deep influence that forces other than the rational have on human behavior and how some people think that they are somehow outside of that.
