Sep 9, 2016 at 9:14 | comment | added | pjc50 | Anthropologists have argued that the lack of an estrus cycle is actually critical to the way human society developed. A pop-science version of this is presented in the book "Sex at Dawn", but don't take it as gospel. Certainly herd animals with seasons tend to have males that meet only for violent fights, which kind of prevents the complex cooperation that makes us human. | |

It's difficult to conceive of a world where people could only become pregnant at certain times a year. Women can only become pregnant at certain times a month, though.
