There is no evidence of selflessness or altruism that I know of. As far as I know we are buying evidence of non-threatening status, options on futures, self doubt reduction, or virtue signaling. We are buying something every time. But yes, Forbearance(Tolerance) and charity wins.

@curtdoolittle Selfishness vs selflessness.

One is violent and/or parasitic, whereas the other can build relationships and communities simply and efficiently, if given a little bit of sense and restraint on just how altruistic one can be. Can’t build if you give all away.

equilibration in everything. It might seem like it makes sense for men and women individually but then it does’t makes sense for polities of men and women using high investment parenting and high investment commons. Sort of like how libertarianism doesn’t work …. same reasons.

@curtdoolittle Either way, I’m heading away from the point of the original question of polygamy, my apologies.

We are limited in our ability purely because we are finite beings, polygamy would then make sense, especially for men.

Romantic Love has has little to do with the survival of a marriage such that offspring are produced with sufficient ability not to be a burden on the rest of the polity. It’s a modern luxury. And at present economic necessity has rapidly dissipated, and will continue to do so.

@OfSalamis Throughout history love evolved from mutual care, because of economic utility – it was only the 1300’s during the plague love entered literature, and only in the 1970’s, marriage became a matter exclusively of attraction and friendship. Romantic love is a luxury good.

Now, sure, prostitution and polygamy are voluntary adult contracts but, they are not something we want our daughters to end up the victim of.

@OfSalamis So those are the reasons marriage evolved. It’s the nash equilibrium where everyone has the best possible for all even if no one has the optimum possible. Humans are naturally serially monogamous. It’s farming, property, eugenics that made long term monogamous marriage useful
