Is monogamy unnatural?
I tried to be faithful, for a long time. However, I always, always had the feeling I needed to see more than one person. I used to think that there was something wrong with me, but now I'm certain that it is monogamy that is unnatural.
Agree or disagree?

Without getting to heavy - Monogamy is a construct of humans and religion.
Monogamy doesn't exist (for the most part) in the animal kingdom, why should it apply to humans ?
You can still be in a commitment relationship and carry out all your commitments to your family , while still exploring sexual endeavours elsewhere. It does not mean you are any less committed in that family unit

Monogamy is essential for nest building and raising a family.
But once the chicks have fully fledged…
Go explore the world and all it has to offer 🤩

Totally unnatural. I think most people would cheat if they were a) brave enough and b) thought they could get away with it.
Keeps the spark at home too x

Definitely agree. I’ve struggled to remain faithful for decades - and it’s usually been the cause of my marriage or relationship ‘failure’. If only everyone was accepting that it’s ok to love more than one person - and to be openly supportive of each other choosing to love who ever they choose - providing all parties are free from STDs and everyone knows this is how it ‘works’!

You mean you've been to a hotel which has a ceiling mirror ... tell, tell, tell which one ... go on ... sharing is caring ... 😉

Should I be wary of that ceiling mirror when I am under my man? What surveillance has ‘the system’ put in our bedrooms? 😱🙈😎

Silly question. "Natural" means nothing. Is getting up at 6am to go to work "natural"? No. Being hungry and wanting to eat - that is natural. How groups have addressed that need over millennia, and structured themselves around it, is varied, but it's unquestionable that some approaches have delivered better outcomes than alternative ones for over 10,000 years. Hence our societal choice to get up and work, however "unnatural". Better than the alternatives. So the common sense intuition is that despite its obvious "unnatural" aspects, monogamy must have prevailed over alternative structures because it delivered better societal outcomes, and for much longer than 10,000 yrs.
This doesn't stop me from seeing my IE, but at least I recognise my (our) societal debt to monogamy and am not looking for some cheap excuse ("Mother nature made me do it").
