THE POLYANDROUS FEMALE

The above link will take you take an interesting article published in MSN by a certain Sachi Mohanty. My own research on "Relationship" issues (for which I am supposed to write a series of articles) made me curious about the title. The article is honest and fortright contributing to the rising mindset of adulterous behaviour (and the confusion this transition is setting in).

I have no idea if the Megallean Penguins (who mate with the same partner every year) or the Sea Horses who are similarly inclined, have any special reason to do so. In human however it is a matter of choice - After you have tried all the permutations and combinations of the mating game (which ends in there and doesn't enrich the individual or the realtionship in anyway), one feels exhausted, used, listless and even a little sad...human mind more than mating is perhaps hardwired to look beyond these temporal satiation gimmicks into searching for truth ( or anything that lasts forever).
