What is the point of this comment? The topic that was being discussed was >I’m betting on monogamy since that has worked for thousands of years.

The reply asked worked for who? Then out of nowhere you're talking about men being killed in droves. Are you saying that monogamy didn't work for either gender (one that lost their freedom and and the other that lost their lives)?

I think he's saying that the world used to be more violent, and the violence women faced maybe wasn't due to monogamy, it was just how the world was.

See, your comment makes sense and is a valid point. I do agree that the world was a more violent place and I don't think monogamy is the reason that women had it bad (most likely has to do with a patriarchal culture and an uneducated population).

Theirs is a borderline flame bait comment that added nothing to the discussion.

What does you calling somebody a troll just because you can not grasp their argument add to the discussion?
