I could not be in a non-monogamous relationship. Kudos to those who can and explore it, but I just know it's not something I would be comfortable with.

Freedom of choice is paramount.
Are you happy to share your car with almost anyone? Some people are, some are not.
Marriage likewise. Some are happy to share, others are not. The problem comes when only one partner is willing to share.
Hence my reply to the poll question is 'maybe'
Perhaps we can discuss this matter further over a few drinks in your kitchen!!

Kudos for the outfit. You now have the most downloaded pic on this site I'll bet.

Monogamy is not a problem with the right partner

I am an intelligent woman who never believed in god at any time in my life....but was happily monogamous for 37 years....voluntarily! We cannot dictate to others whether to be monogamous or polyamorous, and it’s wrong to link intelligence to relationship preference.

Yes, why would sex have anything to do with intelligence? Or for that matter, why would you waste your time learning about pleasure? I'm sorry, but this country is illiterate when it comes to sex. Fear, fear, fear.

Why should I reject monogamy?

Sounds like a stretch in an attempt to convert people to your point of view.. which is something the religious do. Monogamy and polygamy aren't objectively tied to religion, they're tied to human nature.. and human nature comes from nature and is just as varied. In nature, you have animals that mate for life. You have animals that find new mates each breeding season. You have animals that find several mates per season. You have animals that have sex for purpose, for pleasure. You have animals that perform raging orgies that last for days. It's the same with people. Intelligence has little to nothing to do with humanity's sexuality.

If a woman is intelligent enough not to believe in god, she is smart enough to choose whatever relationship style works for her.

There are many serial monogamists, but few actual monogamists. However, being polyamorous or swinging takes more than intelligence; one must have the right perspective and a bit of courage. Otherwise, jealousy can rule.

Monogamy is a very complicated subject which very few people intimately understand. Certainly in America we suck at it if we admit to the statistics. But it could be a good discussion on this forum if there aren't too many trolls among the sapiosexuals and I wonder, is this a good safe feminist type of place? I'm new here.

Monogamy has its pros and cons like everything else. I don't think intelligence has anything to do with it. Its hard enough just to find a girl who don't believe in God in the first place.

Beautiful picture of you. Great chef’s outfit . What are we having for supper . I will do the dishes
