Now a relatively new method has been used to work out the origins of the victims tossed into a mass grave of skeletons, and so distinguish one tribe from another, revealing that neighbouring tribes were prepared to kill their male rivals to secure their women some 7000 years ago. .......

Many archaeologists have argued that women have long motivated cycles of violence and blood feuds throughout history... Indeed. The direct descendant of the hominids Homo Erectus and Homo Neanderthalensis is today's MooSlime male. This unique species shows this precise attitude towards its females.

The practice of wife stealing was a aged and honored practice, kind of anticipated divorce and covered up adultery.

Wait until all these young Chinese men have to be lined up to be castrated...because there ain’t no Chinese women. Will they embrace homosexuality? Share the few women left? Or become very frustrated soldiers?

The “groom’s men” were to protect the bride from the “droits de seigneir” (spelled wrong, but the French can’t spell, anyway), the right of the First Night.

Hey, at least you didn’t do what I did this week, and post an article that not only had been posted before, but I’d also just seen it (same week) and pinged it to the list. [blush]
