@wayne,
Well, in breeding logically, the genetic factor is very much in the forefront.
Ok, my OCD is coming out, I just made a list by age of the men, and their race...To the best of my memory, these are the men who were there....
ed white 65
earl black 48
tom white 33
joel white 32
dave black 30
mike white 29
gabe hispanic 28
jordan lg white 23
blaire lg white 22
The older group, green, and dave, red, get the first generation of daughters.
When those girls are old enough, again dave in red and the blue men can breed with the young women.
That way, the first generation will be some asian/black girls, and some asian white girls.
The question is, does dave get both breeding opportunities? There is a hispanic male in the 2nd group, and besides that, only white.
Do we want to interbreed so that we become no specific group of genes, or do we try to maintain some integrity of separate ancestry? Which would be healthier?
I don't know that the group would be willing to be on the move all the time. We couldn't establish agriculture, and since this happens where I live (Austin), there are just so many things that can make existance easier being realatively stationary. Already built homes, familiarity with the environment, being able to build and maintain protection from wild animals, etc. etc.
Also, will a woman who's hopefully going to be pregnant much of the time going to want to be nomadic?
She's going to have a big say so in everything.
Since we'd have access to guns for hunting, and small plot farming would be a joint effort, I don't know that one individual would stand out as "a good provider" Well yeah, probably, but there are going to be skill sets in each individual that will be necessary. Everyone will be needed.
Even if we moved around, a good mechanic, male or female would be a natural leader and educator.
Since we're not primitive man, the younger men would understand they would get the opportunity to contribute their genes with the first generation of girls.
Agreed upon rules/laws would have to be quickly established, and consequences for breaking them.
Perhaps banishment from the community. Let them be the wanderer. However, if they get their head together, they can come back, by vote.
