polyandrous
Polyandrous refers to a specific pattern of mating behavior, often observed in animals and humans, where a female has more than one male sexual partner or mate during a single breeding season or cycle. In humans, it's a form of polygamy in which a woman is married to more than one man. Polyandrous societies can significantly differ in terms of culture, traditions, and norms from societies that practice monogamy or polygyny.
