Sex! I bet that got your attention.

     Due to the recent topic of apes, I started debating whether we are polygamous or monogamous. Naturally, one would said on an impulse that we are monogamous. Well... at least most people. I mean society bides us to only have one partner, it's always been like that. But why? How did it start? I'm not saying I'm against it, or that I want to go jump multiple mens bones; I'm just curious as to how this lifestyle originated. My best guess would be when religion rolled around, with all its strict guide lines against breaking ones faithfulness and shit. If the attraction is there and is inexcusable, why not give in? If there was nothing to hold us back, wouldn't we all jump on the p-train? Or, would we have some self respect and contain ourselves? Although in that situation, we wouldn't consider ourselves to be demolishing our morals because it would be a regular occurrence. But because I'm not a whore, I say, "Yay for monogamy" because there is no denying that it pains me to think of the guy I like with another woman (I hope he feels the same way).

     I can't decide. As a whole we are meant to be faithful to one person and we just use polygamy as an excuse to cheat, or whether we are meant to act on our passion and we just choose to pretend we are above it? Maybe we're all just apes waiting to go wild.
