Not that I'm against the very idea of polygamy, but monogamy is the norm (as far as I know) in buddhist and hindu societies as well, and I'm sure others. If I had to make a hypothesis I'd say that monogamy seems to be an evolutionary trait. If you have better information than I do, feel free to crush my pitiful argument.
