Monogamy is very often an extremely toxic factor in many relationships.
Amen.
Nobody takes issue with the idea that people can't own people. Until they're in a relationship and they start thinking of their partner as their property.
The insecurity around the all-or-nothing nature of monogamy creates all of the problems in monogamy.
Plus: orgies. Like. What's the point of living without orgies?
Sex with one person, forever, no group sex, incessant discussions around fidelity driven by insecurity, gee, where do I sign up?
Monogamy often allows some less healthy facets of people flourish. Sometimes people will be like "oh I'm just so jealous I can't help it. I don't like when he plays soccer on that co-ed community team, so I don't let him". Like, what. That's so immature and untrusting.
I feel there is no good reason to artificially limit your number of romantic/sexual partners to 1. I do, however, think there are good reasons for monogamy such as lowering risk of STDs or if you don't have the mental capacity to care for two partners. However, if you can make it work, I don't see any issue with polyamory.
I was going to post something a bit like this too. I think perhaps a lot of people on lemmy are on board with this idea, but if I talked like that around family, work colleges, or even friends - I think I'd get a lot of pushback.
