Why Epigamy
AWAD, 2/20:
epigamic (ep-i-GAM-ik) adjectiveProbably because it's such a pregnant word. It applies mechanically to my research, but it's tinged with a cynical romance, and Darwin. Darwin is such an easy brush to paint with. I mean, what idea cannot afford some perspective from natural selection. Think of something, really.
Of or relating to a trait or behavior that attracts a mate.
Examples: In an animal, bright feathers or big antlers.
In a human, a sports car or a big bust.
God knows which paltry part of my life I'll write here. I'll come up with something. And one day, even, a retrospective explanation for "epigamy".
