I offered my perspective as it was organically brought up in the thread. I have no interest in debating it and I certainly am not in the camp of trying to convert anyone to my school of thought. There is fantastic research and literature out there from a scientific perspective that makes a different case. I understand the stance from a religious point of view and that's totally fine. Anyone who engages in an alternative option than monogamy stresses that it is not the RIGHT option for everyone, but it may be for some.
