Less than 50 years ago, Canela women, who live in Amazonian Brazil, enjoyed the delights of as many as 40 men one after another in festive rituals. When it was time to have a child, they'd select their favourite dozen or so lovers to help their husband with the all-important task. Even today, when the dalliances of married Bar� ladies in Columbia and Venezuela result in a child, they proudly announce the long list of probable fathers.
Many people still learn that human society is based on the age-old economic contract between the sexes: Men hunt and women raise children. Fathers provide meat for the family, and in exchange, mums offer fidelity and the guarantee of paternity. While men who produce millions of sperm are inveterate philanderers, females, stuck with relatively few eggs that require a significant investment, tend to be choosey and coy. Men therefore are biologically prone to spreading their seed far and wide, while women focus on finding the perfect man.
Polyandrous behaviour is generally natural to humans, it is only the stigma of immorality and monogamy that has changed that. So let those that do do, and those that don�t envy them! Personally I think a body count (!) is something that when shared, either is an exaggerated lie or a desperate need to look and be seen as �experienced�. In my view, the best �experience� comes from being able to please and satisfy two people over a number of years (wife and me), rather than several people over a few. But that knowledge comes from doing the latter!
