There's one quite obvious advantage to being monogamous: peace of mind about STDs. You only need one check each, then you're set.
I'm not suggesting this would/should be a deciding factor, it's just a bonus really.
Especially with STDs like gonorrhea evolving to become immune to anti biotics now.
When it comes to STDs I think I've been lucky. It's a while since I've been tested, but I've been tested 3 times and come away with nothing so far, even after having a lot of unprotected sex and pushing my luck.
I know people who have had all sorts, the worst was probably a man I knew who was seeing several strippers and I think he ended up with something pretty bad.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
