Hello there reader!
How you doing? I hope you are doing really fine and dandy. I am doing great as well (Thanks for asking).
For this post, I wanted to talk about Love and Relationships in context to Polygamy and Monogamy and my take on it. Anything beyond this point will be simply my opinion and them being my opinion, they are my facts.
So ready? Okay, let's begin.
We as humans, from the beginning of time, have been social beings and it's deeply rooted in us to be social. We socialized as a part of survival. It was a means for not merely surviving, but thriving. It was very much needed for the people to stay in groups and exchange information with one another and of course to procreate. You can say it was God's way of making sure we survive and thrive and so that we as a species prosper. If you don't believe in "God" we can say it was nature's way of making things right for us. We definitely needed to be social. Being in groups, we could look out for each other and help each other, we could procreate and made sure the young ones were safe with the community. We were build upon trusts and an instinct of survival. Socializing was a primal instinct and no one had to teach us that and thus our kind flourished. So just being a human, you are a social being, there's no escape (Sorry introverts but yes, you too). Now throughout the concept of "Socializing" we come to the point of procreation. Let's take a second and be honest here, nature only sees us a baby producing machine and that's it. You are just another chunk of meat to nature and very insignificant to the Universe as a whole. For nature, you are here to procreate and just simply put out babies. Yes, that's a fact!
So you know, Polygamy is the most natural thing out there for you. Monogamy is simply a concept introduced across the planet with onset of civilization and society to curb population and of course various sociological factors included. But guess what? You will be frowned upon for practicing Polygamy in today's day and age but however Polygamy is how nature intended for us to procreate. It's weird to think about and might be even offensive to some. But hey, it's a Salty place, my blog. It's so weird as to how people try to validate their egos with Monogamy. But listen here you, Your romantic relationships are nothing but a play of human tendency to reproduce, insecurities and ego. Yes, you read that right. Just think about it, "your" relationships are limiting someone else's life. How can you call this "Love" if you are limiting something? Love is about freedom and having that feeling of the vastness and infinity of the Universe. I mean, love had to be unconditional and it cannot be even limited to one person. How can you love only 1 person? That’s like crazy, if you love only 1 person how are you even a good human being. Like WTF. Think about it. You are simply bound to not love another person when YOU are in a relationship. Imagine me and you are in a relationship. Now if I start loving your friend's romantic partner. Both you and your friend will likely beat the shit out of me. So doesn't that make love limiting? Doesn't that make Monogamy stupid? Your ego has made you psychologically own the other person, but you cannot own another person, that's slavery. Your insecurities have made you bind your entire life to that one person and if that person just walks out of your life, your life starts crumbling. Your desire to reproduce is still one of the primary reasons for you to get in a relationship. Remember, you always get 'in' and 'out' of a relationship. Just like a cage. So, Romantic love = Ego+Insecurities+Procreation. If you love 1 person only, you are not acknowledging other people and that's crazy. You are basically shutting down your love to the other people. That makes you the bad guy, the villain.
That's all for this post. See you next time reader!
