Well, some feminists claim that the monogamous marriage revolution started with mass bride-stealing, which is a form of rape, because women prefer to live alone or share a minority of men, rather than get divvyed-up and end with someone less attractive than they could get as the third or thirtieth wife of someone else.

That's why married men tend to mate-guard and promote religious mores against adultery, and why female emancipation quickly led back to a form of soft-polygamy combined with widespread voluntary childlessness.
