For example, if true, can you imagine a husband, who is deeply in love with his wife and who thinks she loves him the same, knowing that his wife traded superior genes for him and that she instinctually wants to carry a superior male's baby. Its unreal to think about the consequences.

So, what do you think this says about someone like me?

I married a woman with 3 children, ages 5, 4 and 2 at the time. I don't think her ex was a "bad boy" really. I know him, he's mellow, but a terrible communicator (which is the main reason their marriage ended).

I willingly accepted fatherhood of 3 kids that aren't mine. I've loved them best I could, provided without question really anything they needed (they live with us about 90% of the time). I don't ask what anything costs, if they need it, I pay it. Braces, sports, clothes, whatever. Yea, we get child support, but it's nowhere close to what we pay out. I can see more of my personality in the youngest than his dad's personality, so I know my parental influence has had an impact. I chose to get a vasectomy as I really didn't want more kids and it's a very minor surgery, compared to my wife getting tubes tied which is pretty invasive and carries more risk.

Where's my "evolutionary" or "breeding" drive in those choices? I never had an ounce of regret about my choices. What was her evolutionary drive to pick me? Her ex was a good provider, made money, and he's a decent father, the communication (and implied trust) issues ended up a deal breaker.
