Global fertility rates continue to decline precipitously, with East Asian nations exhibiting the most dramatic trends -- China's total fertility rate (TFR) fell to approximately 1.0 in 2023, while South Korea's dropped below 0.72. Simultaneously, the institution of marriage is undergoing structural disintegration: educated women rationally reject unions lacking both emotional fulfillment and economic security, while a growing proportion of men at the lower end of the socioeconomic spectrum experience chronic sexual deprivation, anxiety, and learned helplessness. This paper proposes a computational framework for modeling and evaluating a Stratified Polyamory System (SPS) using techniques from agent-based modeling (ABM), multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), and large language model (LLM)-empowered social simulation. The SPS permits individuals to maintain a limited number of legally recognized secondary partners in addition to one primary spouse, combined with socialized child-rearing and inheritance reform. We formalize the A/B/C stratification as heterogeneous agent types in a multi-agent system and model the matching process as a MARL problem amenable to Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO). The mating network is analyzed using graph neural network (GNN) representations. Drawing on evolutionary psychology, behavioral ecology, social stratification theory, computational social science, algorithmic fairness, and institutional economics, we argue that SPS can improve aggregate social welfare in the Pareto sense. Preliminary computational results demonstrate the framework's viability in addressing the dual crisis of female motherhood penalties and male sexlessness, while offering a non-violent mechanism for wealth dispersion analogous to the historical Chinese Grace Decree (Tui'en Ling). |
