A recent scientific study claims that women should have at least two husbands to be more fulfilled. Explanations.
“Love is a bohemian child, it has never, ever known any law”, said Georges Bizet. If it is difficult to know the recipe for happiness in romantic relationships, many psychologists are looking into the subject. Recently, we offered you to discover the concept of blind spots in a relationship, but also the 4 most difficult years to go through in a couple. But according to a recent study by the University of California at Davis, relayed in Science Daily, the key could be to have several husbands.
The researchers looked at polyandry and collected data on nearly 2,000 people living in a small village located at the northern end of the valley of Rukwa in Tanzania. The study reveals that a woman with several husbands would have more success in her procreation process. Thus, the researchers deduce that polyandrous women can protect themselves against economic and social crises and more effectively keep their children alive.

Polyandry beneficial for procreation?
Researchers assume that humans produce millions of sperm unlike women who only produce few eggs. So as not to limit reproduction, men should therefore fight for women and ensure successful offspring. Monique Borgerhoff Mulder, the principal researcher explains: “We cannot determine the exact reasons for this finding, but our work (along with suggestions from other researchers) suggests that marrying multiple times can be a wise strategy for women where the necessities of life are difficult and where the economic productivity and health of men can vary dramatically over their lifetime due to harsh environmental conditions.”
As a reminder, polyandry is observed in several countries, notably in Nigeria, among the Irigwe people in the north of the country. But also in India, China, Kenya. If polygamy and polyandry are prohibited in France, nothing prevents you from practicing polyamory!
