In fact, of the 7 sources cited, 3 are general texts on sexuality NOT proof of gene mutation & rest are the 1st author citing himself (!).

Cuckoldry is a historical idea that stems from Christianity & colonialsim. It transformed institution of marriage to protect men's assets.

Cuckoldry is a myth. Research shows that only 1% of paternity is misattributed http://insidestory.org.au/the-fatherhood-myth/ … So again: Greek study is flawed
