Is monogamy becoming an underrated value in our society?

[Antonio the Sixth]

Monogamy no.

Long-term romantic commitment (between two or more people, with or without sexual exclusivity) very very much yes.

This.

If we have come to accept, after centuries of denials, that genuine feelings of love can emerge between two people of the same sex, I don't think it's much of a stretch to assume that it might be possible for a person to develop genuine feelings or love for more than one person at the same time.

Obviously, "polygamy" as practiced in modern days and in history, is something disgusting and generally oppressive toward women. So voted yes.

I would argue monogamy is much easier. You know what to expect, when and how to expect it, and what the outcome might be. When you deal with tons of people, hard telling what you will get. It is far stressful for me to be single than to be in a relationship.

Easiest for me is cooping myself up in my room and only talking to intimate friends and family, so...

My life.

Mine too... though not entirely by choice.

Though it is a bit one-sided.

Yes, it clearly is... though not in the way you intended.

Tony, what is it that gets you going about Nathan's point of view?

Regardless of Nathan's point of view (which is obviously much closer to mine than mine is to yours), he's being as articulate as one possibly can on these kinds of topics, while you are just... being yourself.

I love how Snowy starts with "This thread has a lot of experts about women.  A lot of pontificating and high horsing." and then goes on into a long rant explaining what women supposedly are...
