23. The ability to grow our own food is the cornerstone of society

it allowed us to stop being nomadic, hunter-gatherers drifting whichever direction we could find food in. Once we planted crops, we settled into areas and needed more of societies "rules" to allow us to interact with one another. During that time, females were routinely passes among the men depending on social ranking and hunting skills, not paired up for life. Is that what you're suggesting we go back to?
