How different would civilization be if humans had "mating season" ?
Let's imagine, a world where 10 month a year, men and women don't care about each other. However, twice a year, during 2-3 weeks, non pregnant women produce pheromone that men can't resist and start calling every boy around to breed with them.
How would this impact the civilisation ?
I know about David Brin's *glory season * but not sure whether any other writer explored that idea.
What, are you above biology? The guy is asking how things would be different if we were biologically similar to other animals thar have mating seasons.
Maybe sex wouldn't have the same stigmas. Maybe we wouldn't care who a child's father was and would raise our partners children as our own.
Maybe there would be less creepy aggressive people since presumably it would be easier for them to have their sexual needs met. Maybe the ones that still act aggressively are quickly delta with and somehow excluded or punished.
Maybe maybe maybe. Thought experiment. Hypothetical. Relax.
Are you just off-put assuming that this is some guys sexual fantasy?
That's a fair point, and indeed, it looks like pretty awful, you're right that I could have phrased it better.
The worst, is that the question came when reading stuff like Being a cat girl must be cool and I was thinking about how cat reproduce making being a cat girl pretty uncool
Do you want to read this part again slowly, out loud
