Edición en Inglés
Adultery is as old as marriage itself. At the dawn of humanity, adultery lay under the domain of criminal and customary Law, and its proof was so simple that the simple presumption was enough.
The most remote legislations contain harsh penalties and sanctions aimed at adulterers. More than the history of adultery itself, we find the story of its social and legal penalization, a perspective from which it has been approached since its study.
As Rosa Mavila points out, female adultery is the one that has been criminalized since the origins of our Law, while male adultery has even been -and is- promoted:
"The double standard - canon, Christian and Western - acts in matter of adultery with absolute clarity. The Adultery of woman is a crime; Adultery of man is a behavior not promoted, but allowed".
For Engels, in the age of savagery and barbarism, family-organized groups were widespread, and the main problem arose when identifying the paternity of children. It was known who the mother was but not who the father was. As the family circle closed, incest was gradually dispensed as a practice, and clans or gens arose that prevented their members from marrying each other. As we know it today, marriage between a man and a woman appears simultaneously with the development of livestock, agriculture, sedentary life, settlement in a specific place, and the learning and practice of certain trades. The man provided the breadwinner for the family, while the Woman was almost exclusively a consumer. When the man died thus, the riches as they increased.
