So you think government should have a role in 'enforcing' "guiding principles of humanity"? The fuck does that even mean?

Quote:Here is why. First, I think there should exist jealous selfish type love in a relationship, that a man should want the woman for himself, and vice versa, the woman should want the man for herself. Children should also want their parents to have such type love towards each other.

Quote:This type of love is foundational for family structure. But aside from that, it's higher type love, that makes the person you are in love more appreciated of themselves and of their partner. I think this a foundational of family, and children should grow up in that type of family.
By 'higher type of love', do you mean 'baser type of love'? Yes... they appreciate each other so much that they have no trust in each other, and they selfishly refuse to acknowledge their significant others' very real feelings. I'd associate jealousy more with the oft-resulting inconsiderate control than anything else.
I'd never wish to be the one to introduce my children to jealousy... especially to the extent of suggesting that it is not only okay: but to be goddamn sought after. That has a significant potential to fuck them up in the head, and an even greater chance to ruin many good things in their lives.

Quote:Another problem is that if polygamy becomes a norm (majority type marriages), a huge amount of people that will be single. If polyandry becomes the norm (majority type marriage), then again, same problem.
Why would either of these occur without the other? You're making no sense to me. Either we remove the massive egalitarianism movement from our society and become patriarchy or matriarchy: that simply cannot occur. Single people have an identical chance of finding mates, because just like today: not everyone will have gotten married

Quote:And if becomes legislated, it has potential of become popular, in that, it would be an alternative solution to cheating. A person cheats, is caught, then states, it's legislated, why not stay together and invite that person into the "family" structure.
If a person cheats, and is caught... do you really think that all of the other people will always accept that? Everyone is different... there are people who are willing to let shit like that slide to an extent (ie: me), there are people for whom this is a deal-breaker, and there are people who will hook up with the person you 'cheated' with because they really were an awesome person (perhaps while breaking it off with you).
I have no idea what you consider to be 'cheating'... I have a singular rule in my relationships, and that is "Ask permission, or at least give me a heads-up". Cheating, for me... is when the party off fucking someone has deliberately kept this secret from me, has avoided telling me for a significant time after the fact, or as a lighter offense: fucked someone after class without giving me a heads up and telling me when they came home. The simple act of having other sexual/emotional/romantic/economical partners neither offends me, nor irritates me.

Quote:I think generations have a duty to protect future generations by putting red lines. If you want to push those red lines it's going to have to be a struggle.
Only if you want to make it so. I'd certainly love to protect future generations from believing shit like jealousy being okay

Quote:I'm on the side of the "moral" enforcement here, want to protect the children from thinking we ok with it. If a generation will ever go against the norm we have now, it won't simply be do the fact, we simply allowed it in the name of "freedom". It will have to be something they struggled for and sincerely believed in and convinced the majority.

... Right. Knock yourself out, mate ^_^
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
