I think she nailed it. ;)

This.

:D

I'm a smart cookie.

yes. I'm not saying monogamy is wrong, I am saying that there is a reason that polygamy sounds so great to so many people, and that reason is that we are wired that way.

I disagree that we are "wired" that way. It is greed plain and simple. People want to have their cake and eat it too.

At this point, I've developed an Al Bundy philosophy towards women. The last thing I need is another one of the damned things driving me crazy.

No, there is a biological component to it.

Just shows the differences between men and women.

Even if there is a biological component to it, it can still be by passed. People have become accustomed to having what they want, when they want it, and will settle for nothing less. A persons mentality is what will make or break a marriage.

Women are no different.

HELL YES! ****FEST 2011!

Can we get confirmation from Joe if this next year's Bash theme?

one dick, one chick

I think Dan Savage's point isn't that the world should be a free-for-all ****fest. What he's really saying is that people in monogamous relationships should be more open with their partners about their needs and whether they're being fulfilled, and whether it's necessary for either partner to search for solutions to those needs outside of the relationship. If people in marriages were more open about stuff like who they're attracted to and whether they have had a desire to "cheat" -- and more importantly, if people kept an open mind when being told about these things, keeping in mind the fact that monogamy isn't a natural state -- then the marriages would last longer and end up stronger in the long run. It's ultimately about communication.

****ing is an Austrian village[3] in the municipality of Tarsdorf,[4] in the Innviertel region of western Upper Austria. The village is 33 kilometres (21 mi) north of Salzburg, 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) east of the German border.

Despite having a population of only 104, the village has become famous for its name in the English-speaking world. Its road signs are a popular visitor attraction, and were often stolen by souvenir-hunting tourists until 2005, when they were modified to be theft-resistant.

Etymology

It is believed that the settlement was founded in the 6th century by Focko, a Bavarian nobleman. The existence of the village was documented for the first time in 1070 and historical records show that some twenty years later the lord was Adalpertus de Fucingin. The spelling of the name has evolved over the years; it is first recorded in historical sources with the spelling as Vucchingen in 1070, Fukching in 1303,[5] Fugkhing in 1532, and in the modern spelling ****ing in the 18th century,[6] which is pronounced with the vowel oo as in book.[2] The ending -ing is an old Germanic suffix indicating the people belonging to the root word to which it is attached, such as in the English word earthling; thus ****ing means "(place of) Focko’s people."[7]
