    Kind of the opposite but I think monogamy is not tied to morality like our society makes it out to be and more often than not is a crutch for people with issues around extreme jealousy, interpersonal insecurities and possessiveness.

      I don’t think it’s amoral. I personally want to share something special with someone else, and not share that with others.

        I’m not saying monogamy is amoral, only that I argue with the general belief that it is the moral standard for intimate relationships.

            I think more often than not people default to monogamy because that is the only moral framework in which our society generally finds intimate relationships acceptable. As a result of monogamy’s monopoly on intimate relationship structures, possessiveness and extreme jealousy in response to threats of non-monogamy are normalized and are almost considered a virtue depending on the context.

              I get what you’re saying. I don’t know about the last part, ”normalized" is a spectrum unto itself. “Unsurprising”, for sure. And I took your original statement to really mean there are people with unhealthy jealousy/possessive traits hiding within the framework of monogamy.

              Carry on friend, just wanted to ask a few questions to make sure I understood what you were saying.
