The trend toward smaller families may not be as modern as we think. Although women gatherers had four or five children, only two【B1】______survived childhood — the number found in the【B2】______American family today. Even our style of【B3】______children is starting to parallel hunting gathering communities, in which girls and boys are permitted to play together from a young age, and consequently experiment at sex earlier and engage in【B4】______marriages. Clearly, we’ve moved away from the agricultural custom of arranged marriages and insulating girls at home to【B5】______their virginity.
