💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐦💞 Most #birds practice social #monogamy, but only a few species actually mate for life.
Ornithologist Bart Kempenaers from the #MaxPlanck Institute explains that longevity, predation risk, and site fidelity all influence whether #animals stay partnered. Even lifelong animal pairs don’t always mate exclusively, with “cheating” and “divorce” playing a role.

Friday's fire take:
Monogamy is not the natural state of humans and defs not the natural state of hellions.
"But humans are naturally monogamous!"
U are not.
- U cheat like, a LOT.
- U divorce at crazy rates. Like up to 50% of first marriages and up to 70% of other ones.
- Even when u don't cheat, u often skirt the border of like... emotional cheating. Or u know, climb the fence and sneak into emotional cheating land lol.
Okie, some of u might be monogamous but I don't think its as common as u think. Ur obsession with it is bc even if u were never Abrahamic, u have been force fed their views. I think probs, u are not entirely mono, even if u do tje mono thing for short times."What about hellions?"
Pfft we are mostly like u. Including the dumb indoctrination.
"What about u?"
I'm non-mono but demi. So not mono but super picky.

Do humans have a high capacity for commitment? One way to find out is to explore the default of nearly all of our romantic relationships: monogamy. Are we wired for it? Scientists have searched for the answer to this for decades. Here’s more from @sciencefocus:

Nice paper out in @PNASNews on the #evolution of #monogamy. It shows that monogamy worldwide mostly appeared as a result of competition for heritable wealth at the individual level, rather than as a way to promote cooperation at the group level.

You know what would probably blow the mind of your average monogamist? Asexual polyamory people. The next time someone finds out I'm poly and jumps right to talking about sex and threesomes, I'm going to bring up that counterexample and let them sit with what that says about their ideas of love and relationships.

A scientist produced a monogamy ranking of dozens of mammals, including humans.
From @WSJ: "Humans are less monogamous than some mice but rank higher than one breed of sheep."

My first iOS app is finally available on the App Store! I am really excited about this and super hyped about everyone who gives it a try or shares it 🥰
Relationship Menu is an app that can help people to reflect on what they need and want in a relationship - alone or together with one or multiple partners.
Get it here: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6746169721
You can also use it on the web: https://relationshipmenu.org

Monopoly is when you switch between monogamy and polyamory, right?

Hey,
I'd like to start a collection of books, that are great eye-openers against normative concepts.I have read 2 books so far, that I think fit:
#Ace by #AngelaChen: Maybe the standard work on asexuality and a great book to understand and question allo-normativity (allo(sexual) being the opposite of ace/asexual)
#Platonic by #MarisaGFranco: An homage to platonic partnerships and against romantic normativity or also allo normativity (allo(romantic) being the opposite of aromantic here)
I'm next looking for a book on #RelationshipAnarchy to add to the list. Is there like a go-to book or must read? Please let me know.
Also do you know of any other books, that fit into the collection? It can be about/against any kind of normativity, not just related to gender, relationships and identity.

Really enjoying the podcast!
A couple of topics I'd love to hear covered:
* Creating a consistent sleep routine - all podcasts seem to focus just on "how to get your brain to stop keeping you awake as you lie in bed". I've literally paid thousands of dollars to coaches, hypnotists etc to help me just to get INTO bed at a consistentish time that gets me 8 hours of sleep. So far to almost no effect. I really don't understand how my diet can be so good, and my sleep times so bad!
* ADHD dating - Does it work better with an ADHD or non ADHD partner?
* ADHD and sex - Is monogamy incompatible with ADHD? Is polyamory, or swinging more compatible, given novelty etc. Or worse, given RSD?
* Building a network of friends with adult ADHD.

My Relationship Menu app now finally supports filtering items by search! You can join the beta here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/4drmtcfm
I would love to add a mode that allows filtering by mode but I haven't figured out how I can add a button after the search field yet in #SwiftUI unfortunately.
