One has to wonder how much truth there are to stereotypes about men and women - I felt there were some really good points made in the article, but is biology really destiny? I guess it's up to us to decide.

Okay then what about ... (Score:0) by Anonymous User on Friday April 27, @05:02PM EST (#1) I have two questions after reading this article. Namely: Once a female becomes pregnant are we to assume males abandon females now that there "job" is done? Alternatively, assume that the males begins to stick around because of the lack of some sign that the female is fertile. Is there some incentive for the females to be unfaithful in search of a more desirable genetic partner once a stable relationship has been established?
