Human reproductive behavior is very complex. It is encoded in our 10^9 bits
of DNA. Humans, prairie voles, and some species of birds fall in love
because these species evolved so that offspring raised by two parents have
a better chance of survival.

You could probably write the rules for human sexual behavior, but they are
not well understood. It is difficult to study because of taboos on sexual
signaling. Those taboos exist because they result in more children. Humans
are the only primates that cover their reproductive organs, don't go into
heat, or that mate outside the ovulation interval.

It's not a matter of inference, but simply doing research to figure out the
rules. Your alternate is to model evolution, but now you are talking about
10^48 DNA copy operations on 10^37 bits.
