I think both monogamy and polygamy are natural for humans. But I definitely think they're more monogamous than most animals.

Not as monogamous as, say, swans, though.

To be clear I voted "no".

It's the thing I been dreaming of since a kid and being desiring till now. How the hell can that be unnatural?

Pedophiles have dreams, too.

Um... and pedophilia is natural for pedophiles. Rape is natural for rapists too, rife in nature in general, and was probably selected for by evolution, but neither rape nor pedophilia are good: and somehow I think we're getting a bit off topic?!?!?!?
