New word for the day

Monogamous means having only one romantic or sexual partner at a time.

Monogynous refers specifically to a male mating with only one female at a time.

Monotasty refers specifically to a male mating with only the one female, once ever, and then getting eaten.

As they say, it doesn’t matter where you get your appetite so long as you eat at home. And, there’s so much protein so close to home.
