Charlie, what kind of relationships are we talking about; the uncommited one or the commited one?.

You see my friend there lays the problem. What is committed? Tell me why it is that the human male is the only species known to man that is supposed to be committed (monogamous)? Who made this silly rule, anyway? I bet it was some woman.
For millions of years the powerful male hunted for woman’s food then drug them off to his cave to have his way with them. Multiple women followed him around because he was their meal ticket. If he liked Jane a little better at the end of the day she got a little extra meat (if you know what I mean). If Betty did not clean the cave, like she was told, she probably became a vegetarian and a gatherer. Only the Jane’s survived because they understood what their powerful man needed. The really powerful men thought history have always had several Jane’s around to take care of their needs. Never committed to only one, but committed to the select few who knew that he was master of all that is good and all that feels good. Only he could supply the things they wanted most, food, sex and the seed of life (children).
The powerful Chinese rulers had their concubines, medieval Kings had their winches, yet most were very committed to their number one wife or Queen. Why did this lifestyle change? Somehow women were allowed a little power. Some male screwed up and let it happen. Do you think that even 100 years ago some woman could walk into a court any where in the world and say, I want a divorce, my man never cheated on me but he treated me as less than his equal in front of my female friends and this constitutes “mental cruelty”, and I want half of what he has now and a cut of future earnings. Well my friend this happens every day here in America. Let some male try to do that and they will be laughed right out of the court room.
Commitment is only a state of mind. Who says that I can not be committed to my wife and still have uncommitted relationships with other women? Please tell me who made that rule. Something like this is only spawned out of jealousy, lust for ownership, and a desire to zap the power from the dominate male.
You pick the answer Miguel, the uncommitted one or the committed one; because I don’t believe that it makes any difference. Since my third world experiences (Dominican) have taught me, there are women who understand the need for a powerful man in their lives.
