Writer's Block: There Can Be Only One

Do you believe in monogamy?

I join the crowds who say "What kind of fool question is this?" and "Monogamy is not Santa Claus". Does monogamy care whether I believe in it? Would monogamy exist if I didn't believe in it?

But the intent of the question!

I believe that it is possible, in general, for some human beings to behave monogamously. I believe that some human beings are wired to pair-bond monogamously. I know that I am one of the humans that requires an intense pair-bond in order to behave monogamously, and that forcing me to behave monogamously in the absence of that pair-bond is a recipe for disaster.

I also know that it is unlikely for me to achieve a mutual pair-bond like that at this time. So monogamy can go suck it.

Yes, LaTeX gets me all hot and bothered too. Although apparently just by knowing it one's crusty academic rating goes though the roof.

I really should have used the marvosym \Female \Male \FemaleFemale ... \Hermaphrodite symbols.
