Will this one-by-one system forever be our main thing or do you think we will break monogamy and maybe “team up” as groups or something?

And yeah polygamy is a thing but do you think it will catch on to “the upper class”?

    Some animals mate for life or mate exclusively, others don’t. It’s not “the main form of earth,” it’s the norm by which humans establish long-term romantic and sexual relationships and raise their young.

    I don’t think society will forget that any time soon, but it’s hard to predict the future. Culture does change over time.

      Almost all birfs are strictly monogamous, with a huge portion mating for life. Cetaceans on the other hand…
