Why Monogamy Never Worked

In this thought-provoking episode of The Sheep Get Sheared Podcast, we tackle a subject that has shaped societies for centuries—monogamy. We dig into why monogamy, as we know it, is based on a farce, and why many people have been deceived about how the system actually functions.

Here’s what we’ll discuss:

• The Illusion of Traditional Monogamy: How the concept of monogamy was built on an ideal that rarely reflects reality. We'll explore its historical context and how it has morphed into something entirely different today.
• Selective Untraditional Monogamy: The truth about modern relationships, where monogamy is often "selective" and rarely aligns with the traditions we’ve been taught to uphold. We'll break down how this selective approach affects both men and women differently, and how it fuels mistrust.
• Who’s to Blame?: Both men and women play a role in the breakdown of monogamous relationships, but how? We’ll dive into the social and biological factors that make both genders complicit in the shortcomings of modern monogamy.
• Why the System is Flawed: We’ll explore the inherent flaws in the monogamous system and why it struggles to meet the needs of people in today’s world. The reality of human nature clashes with societal expectations, and this episode will uncover the reasons behind it.

Join us for a deep dive into the deception surrounding monogamy and the role we all play in its ongoing struggle. This conversation will challenge the status quo and encourage you to rethink long-held beliefs about love, relationships, and commitment.
