Is Monogamy Impossible?
Extra-marital affairs have become a norm, whether it’s a case of an open marriage or even a simple case of entanglement. It’s like the concept of monogamy is nothing more than a mere myth.
This question has been asked countless times, and the answer usually depends on who you are asking.
Most women who say it’s impossible explained that in their experience or the experiences of others around them, men are incapable of staying with one woman, so why expect them to?
Most men who answered said while women can be monogamous, it’s against men’s nature to stay with one person forever. Instead, they have casual relationships with multiple partners, even when committed to one.
But who can blame them right?
Extra-marital affairs have become a norm, whether it’s a case of an open marriage or even a simple case of entanglement. It’s like the concept of monogamy is nothing more than a mere myth.

I believe monogamy is possible, despite many examples to the contrary.
But what do you believe? Is monogamy impossible?
