Just recently justwannaplay78 posted a topic called "100% committed.....while offline!"
Great thread by the way Mr play.
However, I thought based on the re-reading of the topic and in a couple of messages to him that I should make my contribution to his thread a stand alone topic...
Well... Ok....it was his idea...lol such an ideas man that guy.
So I've decided to just cut and paste my contribution mostly as I have to admit; my wording was "GOLD" :p
So let us discuss - in my view - the more deeper issue that I thought Justwannaplay78's thread slightly touched on.
The question I feel that should be asked is "why do people feel so pressured to conform to a mainstream stereotypical monogamous relationship??"
My answer to that would be fear.
Fear.
People fear that they may not be accepted.
People fear that they will be socially outcast for not seeking out a partner and procreate.
To offer an example of this - however shaky this may be - is gay marriage. I acknowledge that a lot has been achieved in the last 5 years; but we still don't recognise it legally as yet.
Why is it so hard for us to see that a committed relationship can be whatever two people make it?? And that monogamy doesn't necessarily need to be an accompanying attribute in order to define it as a committed relationship.
I look forward to your thoughts.....
