Sex & Consequences
An anthropologist vindicates the traditional family.
The Leftist political convictions of many of my fellow anthropologists tend to keep them silent about some of the scientific findings that have accumulated over 150 years or so of systematic ethnographic study. But these findings strongly suggest that the family is a bedrock institution and that the kinds of modifications to the family advocated by gays, feminists, and others who speak in favor of relaxing traditional restrictions on sexual self-expression will have huge consequences.
Let’s take an anthropologically informed look at two of these proposed changes to the family: gay marriage and polygamy.
