True Female Solidarity

One of my favourite evo-psych factoids is that apparently a large majority of M/F couples arrange themselves with the male closest to the entrance to the cave (aka bedroom door), without even knowing they’re doing it. https://t.co/BnDrc3I4x3

I don’t know from cave entrances. As a woman who has given birth twice, I am arranging myself as close as possible to the bathroom. No other factor has the slightest importance to me.

Few things in life are more powerful than the solidarity around the issue of bathrooms of women who have given birth.

One thought on “True Female Solidarity”

I was thinking along similar lines. I always get the spot nearest the door. Because I’m the one who gets up in the night to pee, to tend to sick kids, and to get the freaked-out-kid-who-had-a-nightmare calmed down and back to bed. It is not practical for my husband to sleep nearest the door.

Are there really evo/psych surveys on this? And are they real, or just another thing where somebody made up some data to justify their grant?
