Ran a population simulation. Allocated 2 women to every man. No divorce, marriage until death. All the standard vital statistics you find in the actuarial tables; lifespan, puberty, menopause, etc. Someone mentioned being "ready" to marry and have kids around age 35. Guess what the simulation found... when every marriageable woman is married off at age 18, every man gets his 2 (young) wives sometime between age 35 and 40. Sounds incredible? Unbelievable? Just have to run the simulation and watch how the dynamic interactions between male and female play out. Write your own simulation, or I can point you to one already on the web. Mankind is polygamous by nature; monogamy is contrary to our biology.
Monogamy needs to be propped up in order to survive
