Opinion: Monogamy Is Ridiculous

Tony Ae:I ponder this from an objective standpoint, and it has to be objective because I personally believe in monogamy, not as a social construct but more of my own choice. Some people like having multiple intimate relationships? I can understand that, I just prefer to focus all that energy on one relationship (cause they are constant work)

But I don’t like projecting my standards to others. I think there are many men and women who feel monogamy is ridiculous, so why do it? It’s a valid conversation to have rather than keeping it taboo and people hide it in the shadows

There’s also little things to consider here as well that are more.. complex. For instance in the picture here, we have the title “monogamy is ridiculous” with a man surrounded by three women. Is the perception different if it is a woman surrounded by three men? Or what if it’s just a woman alone asking this?  

I ask cause I wonder if the question comes from a place of masculinity or dominance as opposed to what is implied as simple desire.
