I'm not for sure.. But I believe in monogamy :) or maybe it's because I'm gullible and naive... :/

@JessicaLambBrown Depends on what YOU want. Monogamy is not a myth, it is there for those that want it. It is for those that want to go beyond nature and don't care about what is natural, for monogamy is not a part of human nature.

@KillerMayhem I agree :)

@JerryDechant He also said (in the Power of Myth) that learning to overcome and get past the ego enough to care for another person is the next stage in our development. People that can't move past that phase are left in a state of spiritual and emotional retardation. Monogomy might not be for everyone. What I don't like are stereotypes that make one state seem more or less normal than another. If I find someone I want to stay with, that's all that matters.

You may be young, but good job! You figured out something that takes most other humans until their 3rd divorce or their deathbed to discover! Monogamy is a myth, those people who have "been together their whole life" hmmmm yeah I think grandpa had some ass on the side.....

@JerryDechant spot on Jerry, I think it horrifies many that we should not be dependent on anything external, it's a major lesson for humans (maybe even animals or other souls) to learn, but when it's learnt and practiced it makes life easier. Well said.

@brismike65 Joseph Campbell said it best, I think, he said "follow your bliss." Bliss wells up from within us, and isn't dependent on external people, places and things, although most people look "out there" for it. Looking "out there" for what can only be found within yourself is a major reason why people are permisquous. (spelling?) When you realize it within yourself, then you will find it with you everywhere you go & in everything you do.

@JerryDechant it comes down to choice. You are right, but to its too simplistic to say committment = monogamy 100% of the time. If someone does not want to be monogamous they need to tell their potential partner for that partner to say no. If people want to be monogamous or not its not our place to tell them what to do because they will ignore it anyway. Its just that to expect everyone to be monogamous is unrealistic. Many will but many won't. That's life. We can't force it.

Hello, I see this video was posted back on Nov. 14, 2009. If you are still looking at these comments, I'm wondering what your current thoughts on monogamy are.

Actually, in nature that are many species that are monogamous. Once they are matted, they remain that way even after one of them dies, that is to say, they don't hook up with another of their species.

Relationship and commitment to your partner is what makes monogamy work.
