There are people who do not believe in monogamy. They do not think it's natural or healthy.
They're just wrong. You know, you can have wrong beliefs. You can believe that global warming is caused by cow hearts. Love is natural, right? We all want to love. Men love women, women love men. If you had examples of how wonderful love is now people are missing that. So men are born addicted to sex. All males want to have sex. Our sex center is much bigger. We want to have sex.

So that's what was called getting married is you had to prove to her that if you had a baby you would stay with her that you're a committed man.
