I’ve been reading articles with evolutionary explanations for human behaviors, and just about every article gives off the impression that men are naturally polygamous, cheat on their older wives because they can no longer reproduce and are therefore sexually useless, are justified in dropping their older partners for younger, more fertile ones, etc.

It sounds an awful lot as if they’re basically implying that women are only worthy of male affections as long as they’re young with perky breasts.

How, then, does evolutionary theory account for women still desiring male companionship after they are older and their children have left the house, women still wanting to have sex after menopause, and the fact that women live longer despite being useless once their reproductive careers are over?

For example:

"Many believe that men go through a midlife crisis when they are in middle age. Not quite. Many middle-aged men do go through midlife crises, but it’s not because they are middle-aged. It’s because their wives are. From the evolutionary psychological perspective, a man’s midlife crisis is precipitated by his wife’s imminent menopause and end of her reproductive career, and thus his renewed need to attract younger women. Accordingly, a 50-year-old man married to a 25-year-old woman would not go through a midlife crisis, while a 25-year-old man married to a 50-year-old woman would, just like a more typical 50-year-old man married to a 50-year-old woman. It’s not his midlife that matters; it’s hers. When he buys a shiny-red sports car, he’s not trying to regain his youth; he’s trying to attract young women to replace his menopausal wife by trumpeting his flash and cash."

"Until very recently, it was a mystery to evolutionary psychology why men prefer women with large breasts, since the size of a woman’s breasts has no relationship to her ability to lactate. But Harvard anthropologist Frank Marlowe contends that larger, and hence heavier, breasts sag more conspicuously with age than do smaller breasts. Thus they make it easier for men to judge a woman’s age (and her reproductive value) by sight—suggesting why men find women with large breasts more attractive."

Did you see any benefit or side effects?
Please state your dosage.

I am a 35 yr old woman, and I am particularly worried about side effects such as facial hair, etc.

My gynecologist is thinking I may need a hysterectomy involving just the removal of my uterus as I do not have my left ovary or tube. I am thinking why don’t he just take the right ovary and tube while he is in there. I am a 38 yr old woman who has had female organ trouble since menstruals started at age 12. What is the best route to go? I have had somewhat of mood swings when I had the left tube and ovary removed.

43 year old woman,who recently is having periods every 2 weeks, and now vaginal itching in between periods is starting to occur, could it be from taking pain pills?
