Many say that men's physiology is inherently polygamous. Is it mental illness for men to be monogomous?

Physiology doesn't speak to the number of partners only to the structure of those partners. Men were designed to fit into women. Perfectly.

The issue of polygamy vs monogamy is purely cultural, not physiological

Your definition of mental illness is rare and I'm sure you can find someone to agree with you or perhaps some fringe author.

Actually my definition of mentally ill was the DSM definition before it was removed due to political pressure in 1973 (Early seventies in any event). The people involved in that decision admit that it was political and that there was no medical reason for removing homosexuality from the list of mental diseases. (see scripters database again for the info on this)

They may also be democrats, but it's propaganda to apply the term mental illness to them.

While I privately believe that most democrats are mentally ill I have no data to back that one up. Just anecdotal evidence. :^)

You are part of the clique here who can say anything about homosexuals and get away with it. As long as you have the protection of the owner.

It's nice to belong I guess. The truth is that we get to say what we say because we can back it up with fact. Some things get pulled but normally we have the facts to back up any statement made. JR is a great respecter of truth. (I don't know whether he agrees with either side in this discussion or if he even cares but he has always allowed provable truth to be posted)

I think you are also wrong on men being polygamous my culture and not nature or physiology. It is culture that pushes us to be monogomous. You know commitment and marriage and all that good stuff. Read some Dennis Prager for a good explanation of the differences between men and women. Much more articulate than I.
