Monogamy is a prison

I'm starting to view monogamy/marriage the same way I view christianity and capitalism.

very big white supremacist scams. and you know they're big and powerful scams because challenging it makes one seem outrageous. (you can tell by looking at this thread)

listen, 50% of marriages end in divorce and the other 50% experience severe disfunction commonly. but we still don't see a need to interrogate it?

I mean when is the last time you saw representation of healthy polyamory?


or happy relationships that were open or happy relationships that didn't have to end in marriage? Butttt we always see “happy/healthy” marriages.


fuck it when have we ever seen shows, movies that do not center around romantic relationships? have we ever seen shows that center someone happy in their singledom?

since 50% end in divorce, WE KNOW WHAT WE SEE ARE NOT HONEST DEPICTIONS OF MONOGAMY/MARRIAGE.


or how about older family members that tell us marriage is about constant forgiveness because their partner was habitually on some foul shit? and well you know you gotta stick thru it for better or worse lol

call me extreme, but white jesus and walt disney got niggas shook to imagine happiness, pleasure, intimacy and connection not informed by colonization or mass media.

I see what you mean here. But you say this with the assumption that the lack of exposure to polygamous relationships is due to some kind of agenda. While I agree you don't see the alternative represented, that means both the postitve and negative aspects.

What is the biggest reason for divorce?

It isn't infidelity.

So I'm asking, other than the self serving appeal of hedomism, I yoir opinion, what makes polyagamy or outrighy non commitment superior?

Everyone has the opportunity to chose how they want to live their life.

It is what it is

Monogamy is just like everything else. It's what YOU decide to make of it. It can be your heaven. It can be your hell.

Me? I'm in heaven. Hopefully everybody else gets their own slice of it, however they decide to get to it.

One more thing though. Something that doesn't make much sense...

Im not giving my man a hall pass lol

what type of shit is that? If my lover cannot practice monogamy thats fine, he can go about his marry way away from me.

Im not in the business of trying to control ppl.

Interesting. You want someone to practice monogamy with you, but then you call it a prison? How, Sway?

Ive been in all kinds of relationships (polyamorous,
monogamous, etc)

I never said monogamy is bad.
When I practice monogamy with someone it is solely my choice, the invite to be exclusive is up to them to take or leave.

if I say I think we should open up the relationship, thats also my own doing and again, the invite is up to them to take or leave.

yall love not reading and drawing your own conclusions.

You're right. She called it a scam. A white supremacist one.

But she wouldn't issue a man that was with her a hall pass? Isn't the very definition of polyamory being romantically involved with more than one person?

In one post she's advocating the positive traits of a polyamorous relationship, and in another, she's decrying it by saying a man that's with her needs to be monogamous.

She don't need you defending her. Especially if you can't do it right.

you spoke ill of polygamy too tho @Race Jones, saying it'd result in rich men hoarding women. monogamy is a big revered scam, polygamy is exploitative. what does that leave in your eyes?

But this post isnt about polygamy sooo again

 

[Race Jones]

If yall think the only alternative to monogamy is polygamy than I dont know what to tell you

 

[JUDAH]

@Race Jones

In these situations (past, present or future)

Will or have you told your s/o you are liable to change the dynamics of the realtionship without notice? And they should just deal with it?

I didn't say it was.

If yall think the only alternative to monogamy is polygamy than I dont know what to tell you

this is what I'm asking.

what do you think is the healthiest alternative?

Well I'm not ashamed to admit I don't understand. Would you mind explaining what else there would be?

Youre obtuse.

If I say I am practicing monogamy with someone, and thats what we agree to why would I give them a hall pass?

READ WHAT IM WRITING AND STOP PULLING BULLSHIT OUT YOUR ASS.

Im more so speaking about societal norms and how its molds ppls idealogies around monogamy and marriage
