Which is interesting because it means it's not actually pair bonding

Which only has high instances of female infidelity

i didnt say it was only pair bonding

i said it was both

both styles are currently mixed together in the population

I don't think it has anything to do with pair bonding actually

nah it does

because tournament beats pair bonding

female promiscuity persists in either style

a woman can still cheat within a relationship that lasts for life

No it does not

There is no cheating in a tournament style

Or, well, depends on how you view it I guess 😄

But the male does not invest, so female promiscuity doesn't really make sense a term there

its female prosmiscuity because she's taking on multiple mates

which happens in tournament style

Not the same behaviour

yea it is

thats all prosmiscuity is about

Mating with different males each mating season is not the same as leaving your offspring in the care of the father so you can mate again

No, because the children are raised to self sufficiency

>implying the pair bonder would leave

they wouldnt leave dummy

Yes

They do

<:kek:519747357076881408>

Only in pair bonding

they dont leave the pairing

Yes they do

they jjust raise the unrelated children within the pairing

thats how it happens in humans

Some species maybe

I haven't read about that though

I think the most common form of female promiscuity is to pair bond with another male

i said humans

cuz we're talking about humans

So your theory is that it is a pair bonding strategy that deviates from the one seen in other animals?

primates are generally weird like this

probably just a specific thing to us

I

I'll give it some thought, but I'm quite certain there is a significant cultural element here
