Evidence that people have been promiscuous for a long time
LOTHARIOS everywhere will be pleased to hear that monogamy does not
appear to be a natural human state. That, at least, is the conclusion
of a study conducted by Michael Hammer at the University of Arizona in
Tucson, and just published in Nature Genetics. By examining the DNA of
living people, Dr Hammer and his colleagues have found that far fewer
men than women pass their genes on to subsequent generations. In
short, a small number of men have been putting it about a lot, thus
outcompeting their lesser rivals.
