Women can last longer in bed, and having sex with multiple husbands increases the chance of pregnancy and varied genes.If the goal is to have as many biologically diverse babies as possible, then it's probably better to do away with husbands and wives and just have everyone go at it like rabbits.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
