    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

    @OfSalamis None of that really holds up given that in history 70% of women reproduced and 30% of men. So throughout history reproduction has been asymmetric.Marriage evolved to control conflcit, property and responsibility for offspring, thereby shielding the population from hazard of care.

    THE UTILITY AND DISUTILITY OF POLYGAMY

    by Martin Štěpán

    Polygamy works just fine when the group’s strategy is to conquer other groups and take their women but in a society that is a closed system, there is a finite number of women and letting them naturally distribute in Pareto distribution will leave disenfranchised men with the only option of conquering men from their own society to have a chance at a woman of their own.

    The parallel zero-sum game to his I can think of is land. If all land in the nation’s territory was owned by the few leaving most men without realistic chance to own any by legal means, they will go to war.

    History is unkindly truthful. About 30% of women are undesirable and fit only for labor. About 70% of men are undesirable and fit only for labor. What’s not obvious is that by the continuous production of eugenics in europe, we drastically reduced undesirable men and women, producing a majority genetic middle class, such that monogamy, the nuclear family, and property, were possible – even if some of us remained poor due to limited agrarian opportunity – making possible the colonial expansion using reserves of the genetic middle class. Y’all take this miracle of western civlization for granted. Now if we apply eugenics to the lower classes, filter out the intolerable, problematic, costly, and unproductive and keep pace with automation, and if we return to an emphasis on physical fitness, manners, and norms, we can hopefully restore the ‘desirability’ of enough men and women to restore demand for the family as the compromise between the genders. But if not we’re gonna return to the poverty of the rest of the world – a world that within one or two generations might just return to starvation.

    Personally I think it’s like prostitution: something you would not want for your own children, but is understandable for people who ‘otherwise fail’.

    Under P-Law it’s not marriage, but an exchange of powers of attorney, including for the internal sexual commons.

    I can’t think of it other than negatively.

    —“I usually tell myself it’s cynical to think MOST women don’t reciprocate enough – but it’s a common enough occurrence that it’s important to test such things before any commitments.

    One of the points I’m driving at is that even if all high value men control SMP (sexual marketplace) and espouse P, it STILL doesn’t grant an ability societal to control what mothers actually believe.

    In this case, I think coercion fails and instead women who willfully support these concepts are necessary because as Bill said “personality solidifies by age 6-8. those years largely engaged with the mother.”—Alain Dwight

    A WOMAN’S OBSERVATION OF PROPERTARIANISM

    —“Well, as a woman that’s been observing Propertarianism over the last few years I can say that holding my interest was never really the issue. For me it was a question of being too drawn in, to the point of distrusting my own judgement, leading to withdrawal. I mostly just found it all too overwhelming…like being caught in an intellectual flash-flood that was hell bent on carving out a new course for humanity. My presence felt inappropriate somehow.

    There is a degree of masculinity within the group that’s certainly suffocating – you’re clearly aware of this and acknowledge that it is a necessary part of building up the organisation, however.

    I don’t think Propertarianism really needs a female presence and any attempts and making it more accommodating will likely weaken the organisation’s capacity to attract young, enterprising males.”— Lisa Outhwaite

    Smart woman. A rare intellectually honest one.
