This always was, and is, the natural order: Women want serial monogamy. She wants the highest-value man she can get, all to herself, until a better man wants her. Men want polygyny. He wants to collect as many high-value women that desire him, and will follow him, as he can.

That's a lot of conquest. That's a thunderdome of selection.

How does that happen across every human population group at once at a time when many of these groups had no contact with each other?
