Should Non-Monogamy Be Consensual? [PDF]
Non-monogamists sometimes defend their practices on the grounds that, unlike cheating, practices like polyamory are consensual. I argue that advocates of non-monogamy should not be satisfied with this consent-based defense.

Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

The Evolution of Masturbation in Birds. [PDF]
Masturbation has been sporadically documented across animal groups, yet the evolutionary origins and persistence of this sexual behaviour are largely unexplored. Through combining targeted surveys with published accounts, we test hypotheses about why masturbation occurs using a phylogenetically broad dataset on the presence or absence of masturbation ...

The costs of extra‐pair behaviours in birds
ABSTRACT Extra‐pair behaviours – reproductive behaviours, including those related to copulation and paternity of offspring, amongst animals outside of a social pair bond – have long intrigued behavioural ecologists, particularly from the female animal's perspective.

Monogamy and high relatedness do not preferentially favor the evolution of cooperation
Background Phylogenetic analyses strongly associate nonsocial ancestors of cooperatively-breeding or eusocial species with monogamy. Because monogamy creates high-relatedness family groups, kin selection has been concluded to drive the evolution of ...

ABSTRACT Discussions about infidelity in the philosophy of love typically emphasize sexual transgressions, often neglecting emotional infidelity. In this article, I provide a conceptual analysis of emotional affairs. In my view, emotional affairs are defined as extrarelational connections that (a) take on a pattern of intimacy that mirrors the intimacy
