Monogamy Isn’t Working — Not the Way We Do It
But don’t worry — I’ve got a paradigm shift for you…
Let me tell you a story about the strange and somewhat baffling perspectives that people have in relationships. I often hear this comment, and it never fails to amuse me:
“A woman owes her man regular sex. If I’m not having sex with her, I lose the right to insist she not have sex with someone else.”
It’s like listening to a discussion about wild animals marking their territory, but in this case, the territory is another person, and the scent-marking is done with semen. Honestly, the comparison makes me cringe. It seems some folks believe they can claim ownership over someone else’s body just because they’re in a relationship.
But it’s not just men with these peculiar ideas; women have their own version of it. They talk about keeping things “fresh and spicy” in the bedroom, as if relationships are a perpetual dance to avoid potential infidelity. The advice goes so far as to suggest constant efforts to “keep it tight,” referring to both the body and, well, you know. They even advocate wearing a full face of makeup every day, whether you’re working out or sick — all in the name of preventing their husbands from straying.
