That assumes the child is making an actual choice and not being manipulated by one parent. In an ideal world sure. But if the parent or parents are manipulators it’s not really the child’s choice.

God yes. Can we please stop with the “monogamy is not that hard” crap, as if people who choose otherwise are just lazy or irresponsible in some way?

THANK YOU. Y’all can stuff it with your “monogamy isn’t that hard” shit. Relationships are fucking hard work at many points. For a lot of people it isn’t all sunshine and roses. It absolutely can be fucking hard especially if you and/or your partner have unrealistic expections, poor coping skills, poor communication…

yeah, I don’t understand those comments. As individuals we are changing and we often faces so many challenges which impacts our relationships especially with our partner. We all have our flaws and quirks and ups and downs. How can anyone be in a constant, never changing, calm relationship at all times? Change is…

I totally agree with you. That is why it’s so disheartening to see so many comments about how if it’s hard work then you married the wrong person, or if anything changes after marriage then your whole relationship is doomed. I’m thrilled that for them everything was seamless and exactly the same as it was before. That…

ScarJo is right marriage is hard. Monogamy can be difficult for some too. A relative of mine who has a wonderful, long, successful marriage has long said marriage isn’t natural. And I do think that for some Husband/Wife brings certain images to mind and they force themselves into the role rather than just continue as…

I would 100% be that actor that fell in love with every single person I worked with. You get paid to make out with really hot people all day in some isolated location. I mean come on

She gets a massive eyeroll for the “monogamy isn’t natural” line. Monogamy works for some and doesn’t work for others. The end.

I feel like monogamy for an A list actor would be a nightmare. They literally track down and make you work with people you have crazy chemistry with as part of your job. Worse, you’re often working away from home, odd hours, and not seeing your partner for huge slabs of time.

It sounds like ScarJo had less a problem with the institution of marriage and more with the expectation of monogamy (which, although intimately related, are not one and the same). It’s cool ScarJo, welcome to the club! We have tshirts and we piss the hell out of traditionalists.

This seems to bother you for some reason. Why?

Meh- differnt strokes, Judge Judy

Poly person here. I wish ScarJo hadn’t used the word “natural” Monogamy works for some people. Polyamory works for others. The goal is to be accepting of all kinds of love and relationships. I’d love to see more poly celebrities because that would help us find mainstream acceptance, but she’s not going to help us by…

For those counting down the days: her season will premiere May 22.

If Gen. Petraeus is selected as the new national security adviser, he will have to notify his probation officer within 72 hours.

So are we a host when we have a penis inside us? Does that penis belong to us while we are hosting it? Can we do with it whatever we want? Just asking.

Man, it would suck if we had an aging infrastructure increasingly more hard- pressed to handle the stress of more severe and frequent extreme weather events caused by a changing climate if that was a thing and not just a librul myth. Luckily, Dear Leader Drumpf and the One Percenter People’s Party assure me that we…

This will likely have a huge impact on dozens of shoppers.

Being forced to watch the White House orientation video must have been tough for him, since it doesn’t mention him. The part about sexual harassment in the workplace must have been uncomfortable.
