Thank you, I was going to say the same. The post’s headline is quite misleading about what the review actually found. Also, it included only three epidemiological studies (humans) and 27 animal studies. The two human studies that were on reproductive outcomes included only 40 and 43 pregnant women, respectively. This is way too few to draw definitive conclusions.
I think it would be less common if people accepted that monogamy is not the norm. Just be honest with yourself and your partner(s). If you want a monogamous relationship - commit to it. If not - don’t start one. I found out that I am polyamorous the hard way by thinking I am some kind of monster because I couldn’t just be with one partner. I did not cheat but kind of always had other love interests. Fortunately, my partner of 20+ years now was able to accept this as part of me. And now there is no risk of cheating for either of us because we can just be honest if there is someone else. It doesn’t change my love for him, it even made our bond stronger because it needs even more loyalty and acceptance of the needs of your partner to let them be.
