Your views on MARRIAGE

Esq, it seems you missed the fact that, at least, one of the spouses is a cheater... quarantine would only work if the cheater was removed from the group.

Hey, if I had put in the hard work with several other people to keep a relationship together, and one of those people not only cheated, but infected us all in the process, that's exactly what would happen.

My point, though, was that even if the cheater stays put in the group, whatever STDs they bring in stop in the group and do not leave it, except via the cheater. In that case, one person spreads the STDs, and five people are not in a position to do the same. In the case of a monogamous marriage, one person continues to spread the STDs, and one person is not in a position to do so. Polygamy reduces the number of potential vectors in the general population.
