Is Monogamy Selfish? or Sexy?- Reasons Why Monogamy's Da Bomb

December 20 2012

Benefits of Monogamy 1. You can accidentally fart during sex and it’s not a big deal because it’s happened before. 2. But you wouldn’t ever fart on purpose during sex because you know each other’s names and will be seeing each other again and thus can’t just conveniently pretend it never happened. 3. You’ve already figured out what to do about the wet spot. In fact, figuring out what to do with the wet spot is so 15 years ago. 4. You know how your bodies fit together comfortably—and how they don’t. 5. You don’t have to worry about STDs. 6. You know each other so well that you trust one another to take a razor to each other’s private areas. 7. You’ve given each other so many orgasms that you can perform this role in your sleep and sometimes do. 8. You will never need a paternity test to determine who the father of your children is. 9. For women: you’ve long overcome your fears of him thinking your boobs are too small. 10. For men: you’ve long overcome your fears of her thinking your penis is too small. 11. If you call your spouse by the wrong name during sex, it’s because you are trying to be kinky and not because you don’t know your spouse’s name. 12. You’ve tried all of the positions and you know which ones give you leg cramps and are therefore better left out of your usual repertoire. 13. Because you’ve tried all of the positions, you have many memories to make you laugh and lighten up the mood in the bedroom. For instance, all I have to do is say “Do you remember the shower incident?” and my husband smiles. 14. There is no walk of shame because you are having sex where you live and with the person you are married to. 15. If you accidentally lose your panties under the bed, you don’t have to worry about the wrong person finding them–unless you happen to have a cleaning lady. 16. If your spouse pulls a sex toy out of a drawer and wants to use it on you, you know exactly where that toy has been. 17. You can send your spouse a text message with a photo of your package and not have to worry about your spouse forwarding that text to the media. 18. You can challenge each other to push out of your comfort zones—for instance by exploring how long you can both hold out or how many orgasms she can have before she starts thinking about how messy the house is. 19. If sex is just so-so on any given night, it’s not a big deal because there will always be another night. 20. Sperm contains proteins that have the same anti-wrinkle effect as your moisturizer, which tighten skin and give an instant face-lift. So you can give your partner a free facial every Day. 21. Vibrators can’t mow the lawn! 22. When a woman orgasms, she releases an endorphin that kills pain. So ditch the ‘headache’ excuse. Sex will only make it better! Honey, would you like that orally or as a suppository? 23. The Man is the Head of the house! It’s just that the woman tells the head which way it can turn. 24. The difference between love and lust is the difference between swallow and spit!

    Considering my track record, I need to try something new. monogamy obviously isn't working for me. But in theory, I'd prefer monogamy if I could find 1 woman to make me happy on all levels.

    We think its sexy, you can explore games together: eg watching porn movies....couples swapping....3somes...things that we can do with others. The to reality.....Hon I dont think I can do it with someone else in front of you... .....then to I love kissing you as another guy is inside me....can you lick my clit at the same time?   Give it a miss for 6 months got too hard messed around too much....then back to swinging. Cant understand couples that play without ea other...not hot!

    I thought that this was a light hearted bit of a joke and then there were a number of people saying they agreed, that when they are in a permanent relationship they prefer monogamy. Then there is the other school of reply that is "Why are you on here?" . The question is..... . Is monogamy sexy or selfish? . The OP is not about whether he wants to be monogamous, not trying to persuade others to become monogamous at all. Just is it sexy or selfish. For me it is not a choice at all. When in a relationship it is a given. . I DO NOT SHARE!!!!! . Yes monogamy is sexy.

    We see the OP as a lovely couple, committed big time to each other. Being in a successfull long term married relationship. . They want to play, softly . ......Two couples same bed having sex with their own partners watching another couple having sex watching them, while they watch the other couple. Hey....that is swinging and would suggest a lot of couples are into that! . Its sexy and hot....read their profile ..very very genuine ......why suggest they dont belong here..........they do big time!

    Yes you nailed it DidacticTactics, purely tongue in cheek and evoking some fun candid banter if you didn’t get it by the topic or took the reasons given literally. And yes, thank you Futurenomads we wouldn’t be here if we were “cut and shut” in our beliefs. Not wanting to judge any ones choices or have ourselves judged either for reasons being here, or wanting to create a “shit storm”. But it is a topic that has been discussed both socially and medically in length. In the day and age of the Tiger Woods scandal and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s love child to name a few. There are arguments that the human being is hardwired with the desire for sexual variety from an evolutionary trait and to expect two people to conform to that notion is selfish and not natural. Where others argue that falling in love with someone, sharing everything with them, not just your body for the rest of your life is sexy. Yeah I know, for some people we just arrived at vomit central, but it's the truth. It’s a valid argument that been going on for quite a while.

    Both of us have thought for quite some time that many of the single people who hang around the adult dating / swing scene and who even engage in sex with couples or parts of couples regularly (especially the males) are really only marking time until they find 'the one' and then they will follow the monogamous path. Some of the answers on here have certainly confirmed this theory. Yes each to their own and all that stuff but really I feel this is a bit hypocritical. You want to fuck some guy's wife but if you had one you wouldn't allow her the same freedoms? And single guys wonder why they have such a hard time. Mrs Jones.

    some people are naturally monogamous,there is a monogamy gene according to a Swedish study, but only a few men have it.Interestingly no women.Monogamy is definitely a choice and if one person provides you with emotional,physical and intimate connection then that is indeed sexy.But for many people one person is not able to provide all of that.If you have found that your partner fulfils your sexual and emotional needs ,then OPs you are extremely fortunate. Perhaps monogamy is selfish when one half of a couple for some reason is not having their sexual needs met and their partner is unwilling to explore alternatives . Sometimes people are just not sexually compatible although they tick each other's boxes in every other way. I think that many people make compromises in their relationships because they want their partner to be happy,and want to maintain their families so they forgo sex. Some people want to maintain the primary relationship but seek to fulfil their sexual needs by having affairs,indulging in porn, or seeing a prostitute. Some couples explore their sexuality together by playing together or seperately,this perhaps keeps thier relationship vibrant and interesting but it seems that a lot of trust is involved and can be tricky for some. Yes monogamy is sexy and yes monogamy can be selfish,it just depends on individual circumstances.

    people do understand that the opposite of monogamy is NOT promiscuity? its more like polygamy, or polyandry...and who here, really has the resources, time or energies, to set up and maintain multiple 'full time' relationships with others? relationships that may well entail or include full households...including children, and a damned dog? or that might entail bedtime being a group thing.....every single night of the week? we arent designed to run multiple side by side relationships....not seriously, and certainly not efficiently. guys...imagine being harangued by not one, but multiples of demanding dissatsified women....sound like fun? and girls....imagine being menstrual..or even menopausal....and having a multiple of males to deal with.....sounds like a picninc? no...i dont think so... we are designed...by nature, to be monogamous, and have been since caring for our young became a two person operation.....   i like having the 'one' woman to go home to, the 'one' woman to share the mundane and unexciting with, and the 'one' woman to devote my time, my energy and my attention to........ i like having 'one' family....and i like knowing who their father is, and who their grandfather is...i find it to be satisying and just a tad 'defining'....this is 'my' family, and the only males i share that luxury with.....are my sons.

    Butt Handmaiden, Just saying, we see so many conventional meanings changed here eg, swingers ...now include singles Straight ..now means it includes sex with males. To be Bi you must be in love with the opposite sex and want to live with them...   So why not broaden the term monogamous ...Leesa is commited to two guys in a permenant relationship, seems to meet the meaning to me.

    Quoting 'couplesint' Lol polyamory is what I am....some of you have no idea how things work..is all I have to say. Lol Leesa I ll start with you couplesint....I know exactly what is the meaning of polyamory and with out google it. However i think you misunderstood the meaning of monogamy... And literally "monogamy" means one spouse at time....never in the same time...which means you have to get merried this spouse.. So are you merried those two guys???.... I think not... You can say faithful or in love or any other imaginary word from any english vocabulary...your call :) (I do not underestimate your knowledge or you. Just playing with what you re saying :) )As for the rest....monogamy does not mean one spouse for your rest of your life....At least not in the vocabulary that originally came from :) Monogamy means one spouse at time and if we choose to have multiple sex parteners while we re in a marriage, then we commit adultery unfortunally according to religion. Otherwise out of marriage status it's a big big party :) but not even polygamy it's polyamory or vice versa. And for the animal kingdom there re some spices that they do sex only for fun. If it is not just a game of words, I have no words to say because i have never been a monogamus... Faithful yes. Not being shared or sharing my partener while in a relationship. :)

No difference. Christos: Unless you walk in my shoes for a week, you cannot understand what I mean. You can go to the dictionary and look it up and you would still not understand so don't pretend to.

    "Selfish" is a very generic term. Anything someone wants for themselves can be construed as an example of selfish behaviour. Wanting an exclusive relationship is neither right nor wrong. The same is true of wanting a non-monogamous relationship. The primary consideration should be whether or not that type of relationship is mutually acceptable. If all people involved want a monogamous relationship then there is not a problem. If there is a difference in opinion then there are choices that have to be made. The same could be said for someone who does want monogamy. If they have, or are considering having, a non monogamous partner then that person needs to decide whether or not he or she can be comfortable with non-monogamy. If not, that person should preserve his/her sanity and leave or avoid that relationship. Sometimes we get stuck on what's normal, what's right, what's wrong, Well, maybe what's right to you is wrong to me. Some people probably can't even begin to imagine the kind of stuff that goes on in certain type of relationships. So who are we to judge? What counts at the end of the day is everybody being happy without compromising our and others integrity. Neither monogamy nor non monogamy is selfish in an unreasonable sense. Breach of mutually agreed upon boundaries is unreasonably selfish. So there is no judgement here, it’s a matter of you own personal choice/opinion and what suits you best.

    Finally found someone interested with lawnmowers, well said. It is a real tease when she says "wait until i have finished mowing the lawns lover boy". It is then,without doubt in the relationship, a matter of responsibility to upgrade the mower for the fastest type you can afford. ohhh and chocolate. pfft diamonds and pearls.

You only worry about it when you are in a monogamous relationship when your not who cares where the wet spot is as long as there is one lol8: when tired you go to sleep. When tired and someone new wants you well sleep can wait lol9: Whats with all those cushions?10: Cushions get used for pillow fights when inbetween sex sessions when 3 or more in bed11: You cant have two cocks at once (unless you live on a farm)12: Four boobs are better than 213: Need i go on??????14: Ends in DivorceNeed i say more

    LOL! You lot are hilarious! But really, how can any of us sit in judgement on anyone? Unless you've walked in the shoes of others then I don't believe you're in a position to judge. I say stop putting labels and names to everything we say and do in life. If you're happy in your monogamous marriage then toddle along and be happy in it. What's it matter to you if other people have one or more relationships at a time? Does it affect you or how you sleep at night? And who said that we all have to have a monogamous relationship to "fit in" with what society deems to be acceptable? Just another way to force opinions on to others. Why can't we all just share the love and accept people for who/what they are? Why does one way have to be better than the other? It's so strange to think that just because you're happy to be in a monogamous relationship that everyone else should be too? Heather xox

    Hello Lisa,First I d like to point that I am not judging you or even criticise what you ve choose in your life... I have my own shoes to walk with them and I really really like them. I am never never pretending something that I can't be or in this case pretend to understand the way you choose to live. All I was saying was what realy means monogamous and what re the requiments. However i ll use Moliere's expression of tolerance.. "I disagree with what you re saying but i would give my life for you to got the right to say whatever you think".... how is that....?Happy new year and all the best to you and to your life
