Monogomy, pologamy..pollyamory...

Okay, so I've been listening to some 'adult' podcasts recently, and several of them have really been bashing Monogomy.

The thing is, I can't figure out what they are suggesting as an alternative OR why they dislike monogomy so much. My guess is that they are linking short term marriages, or long term dysfunctional marriages and saying "ah ha! Monogomy is the root of the evil". But I struggle with that too. How many relationships (monogoumous or otherwise) have been wrecked by jealousy or being too easy etc.

But I don't know. I'm skeptical that there is a better altenrative (and no dis-respect intended to career singles, or happy as can be singles) when you find "the one".

So, I'm not sure what I'm asking. But I guess I'm curious on your thoughts. Monogomy..good? bad? Indifferent? Alternatives that are workable? Maybe ultimately it is a "too each their own and don't knock it" deal?
