Elephant, wasn't there some research which watched some birds (can't remember which) which were "known" to be absolutely paired for life, and found them to be philanderers, blowing the theory out of the water?

"so it is a safe bet that our distant ancesters were not monogomous either,"
You can say that again.
When Neaderthals met whoever, you can be sure that rape, pillage and plunder occurred.
I agree monogomy is only a recent thing.

Bob you are setting a trap for all the participants. it is a typical debate ploy, first you assert that the question is the truth and then defend it.
A more appropriate question would have been "Is Polygamy Wrong?'

That is the essential difference between a discussion and a debate.

There you go Bob, heed the wisdom of a matriarchal pachyderm 🙂

Actually, I take that back and agree with you Poddy. I have just reread the OP. If it had said simply Polygamy Is Wrong that would have invited a debate but saying Why Is Polygam Wrong does indeed imply that its 'wrongness' is indisputable.

Hubby, I've told you before to stay off these boards!
