@Piss_Ant @kj00 Thank you. The human situation is an experiment in primate reproduction, we are one of just three primates where sexual reproduction isn't primarily by rape, chimpanzees and bonopos being the other two, and we're the only one to try this experiment at such a large scale. And if you think of the genetic implications, they re non-trivial. By giving the female the largest say in reproductive selection, traits other than sheer physical strength are selected for, and this perhaps is why humans have evolved the larger brains, in spite of the difficulties that presents for the woman given the size of the human head verses the birth canal.
