artificially limiting interaction between the men and women... again its suspect. now if you're saying the men and women naturally kinda segregated based on gender. possible for sure but i dont think that actually happens when the men are healthy and masculine like nature intends. monogamy exists in the natural state as well when men are actually developed into full blown males (we nearly dont see this today, its why women rate 80% of current men as unattractive) modern civilization forces it because as you said, its the only way to keep the undeveloped males semi checked in. in the old days, they were sent off to war to die or become priests and other incel shit. there was also more distraction in the form of food scarcity and you could achieve stuff easily for yourself.
