There should have been 3rd category, just looking. As at the moment I would have said
I just except nature as it is.
However, polygamy has negative effects on society. If you observer the animal kingdom
, polygamous males are very aggressive, lazy, and wicked, such as lions. Birds who are often
monogamous work as a team to bring up their young. Polygamous society gives the advantage
to alpha males, non alpha males would have to be like alpha to get a partner and if they succeed
there is no intensive to settle down.
So men fill into two categories, non alpha cannot find partner to settle down with them, and
alpha with no intensive. And the child without a father. probably living in poverty. Fortunately
there is enough beta men to pay for alpha male children, but eventually they will die out.

Um...there are lots of problems with this...first off, who says WOMEN can't have more than one relationship???? Secondly, what's this "alpha male" stuff? Some women don't give a rat's rear whether a guy is an "alpha male" type or not, and I think that's probably LESS relevant among polyamorous women because they're not looking for all their eggs in one proverbial basket. Third, I support my own children, TYVM, and don't need alpha or beta males to do it (though help is great and very much appreciated from hubby/dad). You make a lot of assumptions here which don't hold water and then argue on their very flimsy basis that polyamory is bad for society. Hrmph.

You have failed to explain why it is ridiculous. Do you have any links that support the idea that humans do not follow the same laws as animals.
Or that point out that discussion about alpha and beta males amongst the scientific community is futile.
I just have a feeling NT way of thinking is to popular in these forums.

Sure, we're still animals but that doesn't mean we operate like a pack of wolves. So tell me, if alpha/beta designations truly matter, what's the dualistic designation for women in this small animalistic world of yours?

Polyamory does not mean one man-multiple women.
So very true. I think most people mistake any poly relationship for polygamy. Polygamy is not the only alternative relationship out there.

It's not all about the men. Most poly people I've met have been quite in favor of women's equality!
