Excellent podcast.

This is what caught my attention. "In monogamous relationships, the relationship flows from that of strength to the rest. Even polygamous societies have monogamous rules. Strength comes from knowing who the children's father is and when the father knows which children are his. Polygamous societies are patriarchal because they keep their women closed off from other men."

But I understood you.
