Poll: Is commitment to one person unnatural?

[Jabberwock xeno]

Who cares whether it's natural or not? Our nature is repulsive. That's why we've spent so many centuries trying to supress it. People should be allowed to have polygamous relationships if they want, and if all involved are consenting adults. However, saying that it is a better choice than a monogamous relationship, or that all monogomous relationships will inevitably stagnate while polygamous ones won't, is frankly stupid.

Quoted. For. Truth.

Easily one of the best posts I have seen on this site. You sir and/or madem, are now on my friends list.

For the most part, yes. There's few animals that mate for life, although when they do it's usually with more commitment than humans. Here's my question for you. Does it matter? Just because something is natural, doesn't make it any better, It's "natural" for you to walk everywhere instead of drive/fly. Should we abolish boats, cars and aeroplanes?

That's what you're doing.

Humans are incredibly complex creatures. Monogamy may not be for everyone, just as polygamy isn't. But polygamy being more common in nature doesn't mean anything. Or at least, it shouldn't.
