I think life-long monogamy to the same partner if much too overvalued and overrated. Consider the following;

What is the level of marital infidelity in your community?
What is the main reason for infidelity

Do you think a society designed around communal sharing of partners would ease some of the problems with infidelity?

Now thats another idea. Me thinks I like it.

be careful what you ask for, you might get it. believe me, you dont want a society where everyone sleeps with everyone and where you come home and find your mother in bed with diffrent men or your wife giving a Mouth Action to your best friend.
Life has rules and these rules are for orderlines and our own good. if everyone one started screwing everyone what you would end up with is total break down of law and order and outright war.
you are supposed to marry one person and screw that person only for yours and the other persons good.

Best advice I've heard. It would be the destruction of our society.

believe me, you don't want a society where everyone sleeps with everyone

Why don't I want a society where everyone sleeps with everyone? It sounds like a paradise.

This Huxley is suffering from Attention Spam

I agree with the original post, I think that monogamy is not for everyone, and has proven (with humans ever-so-prominent promiscuity) not to be. The idea that a spouse or partner doesn't "love" someone if they wish to have other sexual partners, to me, sounds silly, sex is an action that is done not just to reproduce or to show affection, but (let's be honest) to "get off". It's a pleasurable, animal act and many relationships are suffering because while they may be linked to someone in every aspect, there are sexual desires that are yet to filled, which can cause a whole other set of problems. Some people find that "swinging" , having an open relationship, adding another wife/husband, etc; tightens their bond and actually raises trust.
Monogamy is achievable and right for some couples but it takes a conscious effort that usually has be be enforced with something other than a promise made to your partner ( personal beliefs/morality ,religion, etc). There are people that enjoy a "closed" or "private" relationship including the effort it takes to keep such a relationship as is.

exhausting

Designed around communal what Huxley, I think you are better off in the religion section.
