'''Polyandry''' means 'multiple men per women', in a sexual context, and is historically extremely rare , apart from some societies where there is scarce farmable land, where the brothers marry the same woman together. One example of such a society is Tibet, but such customs are declining, and in any case such relationships were a minority of marriages, with most men preferring and being able to obtain exclusive access to a woman. | '''Polyandry''' means 'multiple men per women', in a sexual context, and is historically extremely rare , apart from some societies where there is scarce farmable land, where the brothers marry the same woman together.
