    Funny how monogamous cultures tend to be vastly more successful than polygamous ones, as measured in, say, infant mortality, literacy, and other good things.https://twitter.com/anthrolog/status/1000386913445072897 …

    1/5 ☝️ Evolutionary anthropologist here. Few things are "universal" about marriage, and the social enforcement of monogamy ain't one of them 🤯 See e.g. the distribution of marriage systems across the ethnographic record 👇 pic.twitter.com/gS8qmp6Unw

        Does high IQ correlate negatively with promiscuous and violence? If so, then it is probably high average IQ populations that caused those things.

        High IQ is the result of eliminating polygamy and violence. Polygamy selects for high-T violent conquest charismatics. Monogamy creates space for nerdy high-IQ types to reproduce and participate in the gene pool.

        Children in polygamous households tend to be messed up.....and great hostility between half siblings. I lived with 2 half sisters once. Painful.

        I'm yet to see any hard evidence that monogamy caused the technological progress of the last few hundred years.

        Caused? Probably not. Allowed, almost certainly. It's hard to get productive work done when a society is dealing with roving bands of surplus males.

        I have noticed that peoples in a nomadic phase and a high male 'burn rate' have polygamy e.g. Israelites, Mormons, Arabs, Mongols. Jews and Mormons have certainly abandoned polygamy after they settled.

        Actually the romans forced monogamy by law, then christian church picked this up roman pagan value.

        In reproductiv capacity however? Repopulate the world, flood you neighbours with your offspring, secure your Y cromoson line, build a lastning hierartical dynasty = go polygamous. Build prosperity, peace, health and liberty = go monogamous.

        Diversity as in mixing people of different cultures/races creates the least successfull culture not the most. For a number of reasons the most obvious being the inefficiency of communication because of friction between competing beliefs, values, ethics, ideals, standards etc
