Agree

  • Monogamy is the relationship foundation
  • Someone always gets hurt eventually
  • Excuse to avoid real problems
  • Intimacy requires exclusivity
  • Works for almost no one long-term

Disagree

  • Honesty beats secret cheating
  • Humans aren't naturally monogamous
  • Can strengthen secure relationships
  • Traditional rules don't fit everyone
  • Jealousy is learned, not innate
