TLDR: regions and countries with polygyny actually have higher marriage rates for men in general. This is due to 1. Marriage being a huge societal expectation for everyone. 2. Men are marrying a rapidly growing population of younger women (this works if the next generation is larger than the previous one). 3. In polygynous regions, men have far lower life expectancies than women, balancing out the gender skew.

Sure, correlation does not equal causation. But I always find it intriguing when actual data contradicts "common sense" logic.
 
The answer is yes. Polygamy of course leads to inceldom.
 
Who cares? None of us ain't getting even one foid. Much less a harem. Cultural expectations ain't shit on biology.

The fuck you on about
 
Polygamy leads to unstable societal structures though. It's one of the most solid anthropological findings we know for sure. There is a good reason for most human cultures to be monogamous by a large margin.

I remember hearing this as an argument against the 100 females/104 males argument. Those 4 extra men are usually dead (by accidents, suicide, etc) by dating age causing the gender split to be closer to 50/50.
 
if polygamy was the norm then society and technology won't exist the same way it is today. We would be still in jungle
 
It is part of the problem and exacerbates it.
 
Polygamy is a cancer to society, thus Muslim countries are so unstable
 
Christianity and monogamy helped the west in so many ways,

Actually, according to the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample (SCCS), 83% of historical human societies have allowed for polygyny. Although even in said societies, most married people are monogamous.

That said, I do agree that polygyny can lead to instability. A few Chinese rebellions were started due to it.

Do you think there is an innate connection between polygamous societies and potential increase in Hypergamy despite this article you shared?

It's just an Idea i've had. Seeing how since the sexual revolution in the West this phenomena started to emerge it would be only natural to contemplate the possible link.

Of course hypergamous behavior was always a innate trait through biological determinism in women - but seeing it accelerate this strongly since the invention of birth control and sanitary aids for women, only adds to this Idea that polygamy or at least a less inclined society on one stable partner policy - enabled hypergamy to take off in the last years in the first place.

Common sense logic is not logic, it is just system indoctrination.

That said, the data is interesting, and the methodology of acquisition and analysis seems fair and appropriate.
