摘要

Several recent studies using genetic tools have indicated that extra pair paternity(EPP) rates in humans appear, in various cultures, to be around 1% [1–3], a degree well below previously proposed levels of 10–30% [4]. Since these genetic studies enable EPP rates to be assessed over hundreds of years, rates can be estimated before the widespread use of contraceptives, which have been proposed to potentially impact female choice and EPP rates[5]. In a recent article in TREE, Larmuseau et al. [6] noted that the 1% EPP rates have stayed near constant over several human societies and over the past few hundred years. From this, they state ‘without the availability of modern contraceptives the historical EPP rates should have been much higher, in the range of 10–20%, based on present behavioural measures of EPCs [Extra pair copulations] and observed kin investments of matrilineal and patrilineal family members’. Furthermore, they conclude ‘it appears that people were more faithful in their relationships in the past, or – put differently – that the recent widespread adoption of modern contraceptives has sexually liberated women, resulting in a greater number of extra-marital affairs, but in EPP rates that have remained as low as they were before.’ It is worth reconsidering whether the data can support such strong statements.
