There is, actually, a theory that the reason women find it harder to orgasm than men is that they're not evolved for just one partner; evolution designed them to orgasm after the third or fourth fucking.

My personal theory is that most women have difficulty reaching orgasm because their mates don't know HOW to make them orgasm. I'm still gathering data on that, though!

The world doesn't stay the same, and no Alpha Male is perfect for everything. In Selfish Gene terms it's actually a better strategy for a female to breed with several different males, so that whatever qualities happen to be most useful to the next generation - strength, speed, cunning, a good thick coat - at least one set of her genes will be paired with that.

I can see that as a valid survival strategy. One part of the problem IMO is that the human race is short-circuiting evolution, allowing those with poor survival characteristics to survive due to artificial intervention (medicine). I'm not saying this is a bad thing, morally speaking. Just saying that it might not be in the best interests of the human race, ultimately. I certainly wouldn't want to set up genetic tribunals to determine who should be allowed to reproduce!

A complex thing indeed ;-)
At least until one has managed to wriggle out of various counter-productive ideas imposed in an early age. Or can by-pass them with the help of various bdsm styles ;-)

What are the best survival traits, and are they in the best long-term interest oif the human race?

I cannot help thinking of some of the most brilliant physicist minds trapped in a wheelchair. Or the woman without legs who finished a marathon - will power worthy to pass on? Sick people who can beget healthy survivors?

I think immediate survival is not the same as the interest of the species, and even in the very beginning, handicapped people were taken care of - at least in some places. Who knows, maybe they knew things of importance, or could take care of the children, or were good story-tellers?
