Also, I’m not the one down voting your responses. I’m not trying to be overly critical, I think you have a unique perspective and I’m just trying to comprehend fully what you are trying to say.
I don’t think anyone was trying to claim shaming culture wasn’t still around. I’m not sure what all entails to your use of the term monogamous domineers.
Is the wife domineering over the husband by divorcing him? Wouldn’t that just allow him to be sexually liberated to sleep with whom he wants?
What is the alternative in this scenario? For the man to continue being sexually liberal and force his wife to either adopt his views or be in a relationship structure she does not consent too?
There is nothing wrong in wanting sexual exclusivity, in the same way there is nothing wrong in wanting more than one partner.
Seeing either as “oppression” is limited mindset.
That’s a broken link, but am I correct in assuming that you are claiming the high rate of divorce in the US compared to countries that practice polygamy is due to some kind of expectation of monogamy and not due to something like the legality of no fault divorce?
The women standing in this picture could be in a polycule situation with the dude at the table and he could be stepping out on all of them with the seated woman. It could be a group of single women playing a mean-spirited prank on their friend’s lame first date. It could also be completely fake and made for attention.
I know there are a lot of monogamous people out there who talk shit about polyamory, largely out of ignorance or envy, but there’s no need to mirror that energy back at them. It won’t change their minds or stop the shit talk and it just increases the level of negativity surrounding the conversation. Remember, the sweetest revenge against your haters is to live your best life.
Anyway… being poly isn’t a bad thing. Being poly and lying to a partner that your monogamous, kinda is. If one party of a relationship changes their mind after commitments are made, the other party should be made aware before anything is acted on. If not, they are a lying piece of shit that can’t be trusted. Pretending to be monogamous just to trick someone into a relationship until your bored with them, despicable.
Monogamy hysterics strike again⚡
Cheating isn’t about monogamy, it’s about lack of respect for the other part

Are you claiming that in countries that have legal polygamy there is no sexual oppression?

I think that’s a bit patronizing, total sexual inclusivity is not a very large focus of anarchist literature as a whole.
In fact, Murray Bookchin is one of my favorite political writers.

As a polyero, would you start a relationship with someone that wants a monogamous relationship?

Lmao. You scream about liberation yet you’re the one wanting to control other people’s relationships.

Cheating can happen in polyamorous relationships as well.

the problem with “cheating” is the dishonesty NOT the social unacceptability

Making a lot of assumptions here.
