We intend to study the Darwinian effects of monogamy in relation to homosexuality most expressly in a "non-traditional" homosexual family structure. While White supposes that "the male mind is the largest single obstacle to lifelong monogamy" (White, 137), we maintain that monogamy, even monogamy between two men, is a natural occurring social function; and, while it may be a maleÕs Darwinian predisposition to copulate with various mates, it does not absolve him from his societal duty to maintain a stable and monogamous life-long relationship. To prove this point we will use various resources ranging from empirical data collected through randomly administered surveys to biological, psychological, and cultural texts.
