I admit I do not tolerate stupidity, especially those who profess to have an education, yet do not know all the meanings of a simple word. For example, the word habit, when dealing with an individual, it details a conscious or subconscious way of doing something repeatedly. HOWEVER Habit, in reference to a species refers to either activities or physiological changes in said species to adapt to its environment. For examples, female herd animals tend to synchronize fertility cycles, referred to as a species habit, which results in offspring being born within days of each other, thus allowing for better protection of the young, as well as matching development of the young through out the time when they are most dependent on mothers/adults for protection and nurturing. In humans, women in a group situation tend to match (and certainly not by choice) cycles with the women they are living with. While still a species specific habit, it is not a conscious one. I just got blasted for using the term, correctly in reference to a good reason for being monogamous, by a sub who wanted be solo in a household, who also listed cuckolding as something she enjoys.
