 Polyamory Review "Sex, Sexuality and Social Structure: Polyamory" What Bonobos Can Teach Us Published February 27, 2015. Bonobos share 98.7% of our DNA. Physically, they resemble chimpanzees. But something remarkable sets them apart from their primate cousins, making them an altogether different animal. Bonobos live in almost complete absence of violence; work cooperatively toward shared goals; foster a society that values equality; and engage in prolific casual sex. Could these gentle, promiscuous creatures hold the key to a world without war? Vanessa Woods, author of Bonobo Handshake, discusses what we might learn from our evolutionary relatives with anthropologist Brian Hare and NPR RadioLab's Jad Abumrad. Here is a documentary about the Mosuo tribes The Land Where Women Rule: Inside China's Last Matriarchy . Published by Broadly on Feb 25, 2016 Located in the foothills of the Himalayas, Lugu Lake is home to China’s Mosuo matriarchy. The region's 40,000 denizens have come up with a unique own family structure that puts women in charge. The Mosuo's “walking marriages”—in which women can have as many boyfriends as they want throughout their lifetime—replace traditional monogamy and inheritance passes from mother to daughter. But are the women really in control—and how are men fairing under their rule? Broadly correspondent Milène Larsson spends a week in Lugu Lake with three generations of Mosuo women to find out what life is like in one of the world’s last matriarchies. If you thought it was only the early hunter gatherer cultures that practised polyamory, think again. The Truth about Polyamory For better or worse, our cultural is abandoning its love affair with monogamy. Post published by Deborah Anapol Ph.D. on Apr 18, 2013 in Love Without Limits.
