Research cont'd

Today I organized my thoughts into notes. I researched the opposing argument to my paper including the monogamous chemical that produces jealousy. I found that jealousy is a monogamous emotion because possessiveness drives us to claim one partner. Also, if we are genetically monogamous, there must be a biologically reason why. Maybe this reason is being affected by modern factors that never existed before and that is why the species is being driven toward polygamy. Next I will organize the thoughts on my side of the argument and reasearch historical customs that prove my points.

Research Paper Progress (Day 1)

Today I developed my research topic. I finally decided on the question, "Are humans a monogamous species or polygamous?" I will research biological, psychological, and social patterns to determine whether or not humans are meant to mate for life. I found several articles online with livescience.com and science daily that support both theories. They provided me with statistics and expiremental data. Next I will research further, including possible interviews, to decide whether or not humans are monogramous.
