What does this sentence mean as it pertains to your posts in this thread?

Your posts in this thread aren't an analysis of the normative behaviors of men and women. They are attempting to attribute meaning where there may be none in this specific instance; and attempting to attribute blame where there may be none, beyond opinions of morality.

Don't bother finding that link with that easily dismissed research. There has been little to no reliable research on the "nature" of monogamy in humans. It is most likely a combination of the social, cultural, and biological. Social scientists know that these things can be learned but there has been no concrete proof that these things are biological.

Decide. Exactly.

Other women may decide differently. There is nothing inherently deviant about that nor ascriptive about the former decision.
