Since when is the Mosuo tribe the model for most of humanity?

As for your comments about couples and thrupples, and how these supposedly relate to het and homosexuality, I don't understand. You seem to think that pair-bonding is inherently heteronormative, and that societies based on heterosexuality are never polygamous.

No, I'm saying the word "intercourse" isn't heteronormative, since the term "homosexual intercourse exists". I'm also saying that the nuclear family is a construct. Childrearing doesn't have to be done by either of the biological parents.
