	Serial monogamy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Serial monogamy is a form of monogamy in which participants have only one sexual partner at any one time, but have more than one sexual partner in their lifetime.
		Serial monogamy could also be seen as serial, but not monogamous.
		It is a form of polygamy wherein the multiple spouses are had "in series" (one after the other) rather than "in parallel" (at the same time).

	Talk:Serial monogamy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is not serial polygamy, it is Serial Monogamy -- just like a serial killer (a bad comparison, but useful) kills one person at a time, but over and over, a serial mogamist is married to one person at a time, but over and over.
		All the scholarly literature I know on this topic refers to it as serial mogamy or (the term I prefer) Chain Marriage, not serial polygamy Slrubenstein

	Monogamy Myth
		The Monogamy Myth is the belief that monogamy is the norm in our society and that it is supported by society as a whole.
		Stricter monogamy and private property ownership worked together since the inheritance of the property was decidedly the children of the owner.
		According to the Monogamy Myth, society as a whole is supportive of monogamy and of people's efforts to remain monogamous, leading people to expect to have a monogamous marriage.

	The Body: Monogamy
		Monogamy technically refers to the marriage of one man and one woman but is also widely used to refer to the practice of restricting sexual behavior to a single partner.
		Within the Judeo-Christian tradition, lifelong monogamy between a man and a woman within the bounds of marriage has been regarded as normative, with sexual infidelity described as sin and serving as sufficient rationale for the legal dissolution of the union.
		The term "serial monogamy" has been coined to refer to situations in which individuals have a series of consecutive sexual pairings of various duration, such that they have multiple partners over time but never more than one partner at any single point in time.

	Monogamy as a Prisoner's Dilemma: Non-Monogamy as a Collective Action Problem - Dr. J. Hughes
		For monogamy, this would imply that monogamy is a success since most people are monogamous until they switch partners, even if they do so every week.
		On the other hand, serial monogamy is clearly more problematic for those who hold with romantic ideas of romantic love, that binds (only) two souls forever, than serial polyamory is for those who are rejecting possessive relationships.
		Gary Becker has suggested that monogamy may have arisen as a means for poor and unattractive men to ensure that they have access to wives.

	MONOGAMY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Monogamy usually requires that animals be able to recognize their mate as an individual, not a particularly easy cognitive task.
		Monogamy may evolve when the cost of acquiring mates is very high, when females have the ability to restrict male behavior, or when offspring survival requires more intensive care than can be provided by a single animal.
		The major cost of monogamy is that each individual makes their entire reproductive investment dependent on the fitness of their mate.

	MONOGAMY - IS MONOGAMY OF GOD?
		Monogamy is not in anyway less holy than celibacy, but rather, to each according to his calling.

		Monogamy is not in anyway more superior or holier than polygamy just as celibacy is to monogamy.

		Lasting monogamy, it seemed, was natural for us, just as it was for geese, swans and the other winged creatures that have filled our language with such labels as "lovebirds" and "lovey-dovey." Family values, even the experts said, were in our genes.
		And when, in addition to all the serial husbands, you count the men who live with a woman for five years before deciding not to marry her, and then do it again (perhaps finally at 35 marrying a 25-year-old), the net effect is not trivial.
		Monogamy is threatened not just by poverty in an absolute sense but also by the relative wealth of the rich.

		(At least, serial monogamy seems to be historically what human socities most often - not always - slip into) There are probably underlying biological reasons for this, mostly dealing with resource allocation (which is what I met by a one-to-one pairing).
		Monogamy is also arguably better for males, who otherwise have a much more variable rate of reproductive success under other systems.
		It's not clear why humans do this -- invent sophistic oxymorons such as "serial monogamy", that is -- since most primates have always been polygamous to one degree or another depending on the species involved.

	Sex and the Single Hominid:
		Fisher uses the terms "monogamy" and "adultery" as modern analogues to whatever it was that early hominids did, or whether she intends for us to actually believe that early hominids were aware of modes of behavior that are synonymous with these modern terms.
		One of the pieces of evidence that Fisher marshals for primate "serial monogamy" is the study of olive baboons.
		Contra Fisher, the drive toward monogamy that is purportedly a crucial biological factor behind a female's reproductive strategy seems wholly absent in the olive baboons.

	Feature Article
		Quantifying the serial monogamy trend is difficult, because the evidence is impressionistic, says Reginald Bibby, a sociologist at the University of Lethbridge who has surveyed teens extensively.
		Although they differ in their views of serial monogamy, sexual liberationists and moral traditionalists alike tend to cite three causes for the trend: technology, feminism and the decline in religion.
		Indeed, given that serial monogamy is just a more prolonged form of sleeping around, teens are arguably practising the very free love values they claim to oppose, says Paul Robinson, a former teacher and director of the 1994 Freedom Tour, a series of pro-chastity rallies sponsored by Kelowna Christian Centre.

		This study uses genographs to represent family structures in serial monogamy.
		Genographs are an alternative to drawings of family trees, or genograms, used in cases of serial monogamy.
		In clinical genograms that person is labeled the "identified patient." The relevant serial relationships from the point of view of others, including the children, tend to be excluded, because genograms were developed primarily for the representation of intergenerational relationships.

	Molt Staggering
		All except one of the receptive females staggered the timing of their moults at intervals throughout the summer so that each moulted and subsequently mated inside the shelter of a dominant male.
		However, it is likely that dominance in males results in a functional bias of the operational sex ratio in favour of females, thereby leading to serial monogamy and moult staggering.

	Serial Monogamy
		When two mature male and five mature female lobsters were communally held in large aquaria, the females staggered the timing of their molts at precise intervals throughout the summer to mate with the dominant male.
		This suggests that the male protects the female from injury and predation while her shell is soft during postmolt cohabitation.
		In the situation with two males and five females, if the first female to mate smelled only male odor when she checked the male shelter entrance, perhaps her molt was thereby accelerated.
