Is it really surprising? Monogamy has been essentially socially enforced for millenia at this point.

Yeah but if you see monogamy as bad and immoral and try to explain why ... somehow I expected at least some understanding. I thought other people were afraid to say what they really think.

Edit: it was a while ago, I was young and naive
