The Return of Polygamous Relationships in the West

In America, it’s estimated that a fourth of husbands are raising another man’s child, either with or without their knowledge. This comes as a result of both fathers taking responsibility for their stepchildren, or their wives secretly getting pregnant by another man, and never admitting it to their husbands.

Regarding the latter, according to a survey of individuals who had cheated or were looking to cheat, around 9% of female respondents admitted to getting pregnant by another man and passing the baby off as their husband's, while an additional 16% were unsure about the father of their child. Keep in mind, that these percentages come from the women willingly admitting to their infidelity. A far greater percent would never admit to doing this.

You may ask yourself, why does this happen? The short and brutal truth is this: Mother Nature.

Mother nature does not care about social etiquette. She does not care about fairness, honesty, and order. She cares about one thing, and one thing only: Survival.

In the cruel world we are all forced to inhabit, the strong will triumph over the weak. You see it in the animal kingdom when a lion takes down the gazelle, or when a hurricane decimates a city.

Women are a part of nature. That is why it’s called “Mother nature,” and not “Father nature.” They are emotional, chaotic, and ruthlessly adhere to nature’s will: To reward the strong and destroy the weak.

That is why women are far more picky when it comes to selecting their mates. Sex and pregnancy are destructive to their delicate bodies, and they can only have so many in their short fertility windows. So it is imperative that they choose the strongest male possible to impregnate their valuable wombs.

This is why for the entirety of human existence until the past few centuries, powerful kings controlled vast harems of fertile brides. Every time one of these rare, strong males would have sex, it would be with a fertile girl forced to share him with hundreds, if not thousands of other women. Sure, any one of these girls could leave to have sole possession of an “average Joe” at any moment. But they rarely did this because women listen to their instincts, and their instincts tell them to fuck only the strongest they can possibly obtain.

This is polygamy. A few men control the majority of fertile women. The remaining men must risk their lives to obtain enough riches and power to eventually obtain their own harems. Unfortunately for them, most fail in this Darwinistic pursuit, either through death, imprisonment, or cowardice.

Is this fair? No. Is this sustainable? Hell no. But is this natural? You bet your ass it is.

Our Turn Towards Monogamy

Although polygamy is natural for humans, it is not sustainable. Societies and empires don’t operate linearly, you see. They operate in cycles.

For example, a tribe that was victorious in battle against a neighboring village would raid its gold, land, and women. The males would either be killed off, or sold into slavery. The ruling tribe would have its own golden age, where the village would party, the men would eat plenty, and the women would all fall pregnant.

The next generation would be greater in number, and in turn would need more resources sustain its growing population. So, they would have to conquer another village to do just this. Sitting idly by was not an option, as there were more mouths to feed, and a group of violent men willing to fight for their right to procreate.

If they conquered and plundered successfully like their ancestors before them, the cycle would continue. But all it took was one decisive defeat to end their bloodlines, and cause their culture to die with them.

This was the never-ending chaotic cycle of humanity until tribes and villages began to form larger nation-states. Western Europe was particularly good at this, specifically England and France. These large organized nations were able to field more powerful armies, and defend growing cities. However, while the men were away fighting, it became increasingly difficult to manage the females at home. As they entered their fertile years, they yearned for powerful men to impregnate and support them. But how could a soldier ensure that his mate was carrying his child?

Enter: Marriage.

Marriage in Western Europe didn’t become established until the 15th century. Just think for a moment how recent that is when looking at human history as a whole.

Marriage was invented to create something resembling the “nuclear family,” being one man and one women creating a distinct family unit. This is generally when Western Europe moved from Polygamy to Monogamy.

The reason that I mention Western Europe alone is because this newsletter is primarily focused on human sexuality in the West. Different areas of the world experienced similar shifts at different times, and to cover all of them would take more time than you’d like to commit to reading.

Society and Biology Misaligned

No matter what laws we pass and what societal pressures we create to ensure Monogamy, human biology does not change so easily. Sure, we’ve adapted to accept Monogamy more than our ancestors, but deep down, we know something is wrong with it.

It is in man’s nature to fuck multiple partners, and it is in women’s to get pregnant by the strongest male she can possibly obtain.

By the way, it goes even deeper than this: Women want men with superior DNA to procreate with, but once they give birth, their needs change. Once they have a child to support, they require a male to provide them with enough resources to support herself, and her child.

In the far distant past, these two things would be provided by the same man. Women in harems knew their powerful mate had the resources to provide. But what about modern times?

Today, it’s becoming more rare for a woman to get pregnant by a man with superior DNA, and vast resources to support her and the child. This is why you’ll see girls get knocked up after one-night-stands with a 6 foot, jacked deadbeat and then seduce a balding, white-collar lawyer to support her and the bastard child.

While this strategy used to be more covert, the Internet has helped shed the light on this manipulative practice. As our culture evolves and technology increases the awareness of devious social behaviors like this, people are starting to be more open about their mating strategies.

The Three Types of Men

Men are starting to fall into three distinct camps:

First, the “loners,” some of which are considered “incels.” These are the men who receive practically zero female attention and opt out entirely of the dating scene. They are not relevant to the topic at hand, but we will revisit them in another article.

Secondly, we have the “breeders.” These are the men that women deem “worthy” of passing on their genes. They are the ones getting girls pregnant, whether or not they have a ring on their finger.

And finally, we have the final section of men: The “eunuchs.”

These are the men that women desire to extract resources from but have no desire to procreate with. The only difference between the “eunuchs” and the “loners,” is that the eunuchs willingly agree to participate in parasitical relationships with women. They are the stepfathers who agree to take care of a woman and her children that were fathered by another man.

Often times these eunuchs can impregnate their wife or girlfriend once or twice, but the woman only agrees because she needs some way to lock him down and extract support for her existing children.

I refer to these men as eunuchs because they’re usually coerced by their partner into getting a vasectomy. She’ll complain that they have “too many kids,” and force him into getting medically castrated via withholding sex or threatening to leave.

When these women are inevitably successful in “fixing” her partner, she’ll create a celebratory “vasectomy care package” and post all over social media. Subconsciously, she’s creating a humiliation ritual to brag about how she successfully effeminized her man, and took his balls as a trophy.

This is the female version of an ancient warlord parading around his enemy’s head on a spike throughout the town square. Men and women love to boast about their accomplishments, though they have different ways of going about it.

Eunuchs once played a pivotal role in society. Remember when I mentioned kings possessing harems of fertile women earlier? Who do you think kept those women in line? That’s right: The eunuch.

Historically, a eunuch was a man or boy who had been castrated, or had their testicles removed or mutilated. This barbaric practice was done because the kings of old didn’t want another man to impregnate his many wives. He wanted a docile, subservient, sterile man to keep watch over his “flock” of women while he was away. And the only way to ensure the kings children were biologically his, was to make sure there were zero men with fertile semen capable of having sex with his women.

While our “modern day eunuchs” aren’t getting their testicles removed entirely, they are being sterilized to ensure they cannot fill a woman’s womb. And even if their reproductive tract remains unharmed, they can suffer “spiritual castration” where they are beaten so badly into submission by their women that they can’t bring themselves to reproduce.

The eunuch never left. He was simply recreated.
