there are some coerciveness in the fact that monogamy is the expected relationship, enforced by religions, families, and states.
and as a normarive thing, it should at least bw questioned, even if you agree with it.
like murder is bad, that is a normarive statement enforced by religions and states. but questining it, I have to agree, murder IS bad. and guess what. if you disagree with me, (this is a conversation not a debate but indulge me the following statement) I’ll call it a win if you just question it, even if you don’t change your mind.
But if two people agree they want to be monogamous with each other because that is what they want, nothing to do with society, then it’s not unethical.

I don’t 100% agree, but as long as it is questioned rather than passively adopted as normarive standards then that’s good.
