@AthrillatheHunt lol

@Convivial so in essence you think not only men are polygamous/polyamorous by nature but women are too

But the only obstacle is bringing up children

Great angle .....
But how does that restrict or prevent one from having multiple partners?

@SilentObZerver think about it.... If you're busy looking after children who is bringing in the money to feed them?

@Convivial thats a good point!

You(the woman)can bring in the money if you work or the man ......


But if cos there are men who cater from their children yet are still in polyamorous relationship

@AthrillatheHunt who?

@SilentObZerver the father of the Jews Christian’s and Muslims. Honest Abe

@AthrillatheHunt interesting

@Mindfulness so how do you see an assertion made of a group of people by a an individual who belongs that group


Is that assertion valid or the mere point that individual belongs to that group it invalidates the veracity/legitimacy of the assertion?

@Pomegranates Exactly. The myth was never that only men are capable of it, but that only men get judged less for it.

@LeGrotesque Nice perspective

@LeGrotesque good point

Does having attraction for others automatically make one a poly
Or its what one chooses to do with the attraction while in the committed relationship ?

@SilentObZerver no as i don't believe in that at all it's just plain lust

@GoFish what if the "lust" is fueled by nature.....?

@SilentObZerver that's just an excuse

@MizzO interesting point

What makes you lean toward nurture, and how do you account for the same pattern showing up across cultures and history?

@SilentObZerver because also found across cultures and history are men who don't fit that ideology. Most often times those societies have been impacted by outside influences as well. It really grinds my gears when people fail to take into account that men, and people in general are multifaceted beings. If we are talking about scientifically speaking then we have certain universal truths with a few outliers but if we are talking about preferences, there's too many factors to make such blanket statements imo.

@SilentObZerver yup.

@OogieBoogie cool

@SilentObZerver hang on, i just had a thought:
By "leave the door open" do you mean 'walk out it and never come back', or "leave the door open" to invite more lovers in?
