Vitalis on monogamy vs. polyamory

[Neone]

So I guess my question is... What is the purpose of having children?
and GS, are you saying that If a millionaire came up to your wife and say 'Hey missy, bring you and your children and come live with me in my castle forever', you would come home to find your wife packing her things?

So I guess my question is... What is the purpose of having children?

In my POV, the purpose of life is to make more life.  Life must go on.  I'm not into religious reasons.
Reproduction is a sign of life.  No reproduction, no life, no future.

My wife?  You never can tell. Who knows, maybe she's got a boyfriend right now and getting contraceptively laid?  I wouldn't know unless I hire a private eye.

Right now she's too busy with her new career.

She's got her religious thing going for her and her family right now.

I have seen that happen with the wife of our old company driver.  The wife packed up and left her husband and 4 children and ran away with her Korean boyfriend. 

I have a sister in law who's mother turned into a nympho maniac after a ligation.  She packed up and left her husband and 12 children and ran off with a new boyfriend.

Strange things happen all the time.

it's 40% of Males 80% of females historically.

How did they find out? Could you provide a link?

Makes you wonder why we busted our arses as working bees when we could of fought back, or sat on the couch playing video games or go surfing.

I don´t understand (because of my language problems?). Fight back against whom?

Hey wodgina, why don´t you answer? Please, where did you read/hear about these 80% versus 40% who passed their genes?

there you go. This is where I read it.

Here is another article (a bit off subject) however shows two different mating strategies. Two women in similiar circumstances...one chose the alpha bad boy one chose the beta provider. Two different mating strategies with two different outcomes. The beta provider is paying for the alpha's children as well (welfare). The bad boy will probably have more kids.

Well, wodgina, the lucky bastard, is certainly in a position to   accumulate  more wealth given this article which  describes the only region in the world not somehow affected by the current economic crises:-

It's weird. I remember being poor...this place has changed.
