Jordan Peterson is completely wrong though. Monogamy is part of the problem. We should normalize as a society that there are indeed people you just want to have sex with but are not interested in marrying/reproduction with. It shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Jordan Peterson's life is a freakshow. If he had such idiosyncratic views on coding, nobody here would even consider listening to him. If you want to keep your dick dry, go watch some JP.

I don't think anyone has an issue with that. Everyone that does not want to be monogamous is free to do so with others the do not want to be monogamous. I think tinder is well known for this. For many other people monogamy is important and a violation of that monogamy is grounds for ending a relationship. Why can both groups not just live their lives and wish each other well? The OP article is not about that, men that want to have sex, monogamous or not are not able to and that number is increasing. I've been with my wife for 23 years now, more than half my life. 100% monogamous on both sides. It works for us and if either one of us was to cheat then that would be the end of the relationship. Relationships are managed by rules accepted by both sides. If a relationship does not want to have monogamy in its rule set and all parties agree then more power to them.

Could you share how you formed this thought? Why is monogamy part of the problem?

The problem with this approach is eventually people who think this way are bred out of gene pool. Monogamy has been successful at continuing human race for quite a long time by providing stable growing environments for kids.

There's mixed perspectives on this question. The prevailing opinions are that monogamy flattens sexual opportunity, since sex people choose to have outside of marriage tend to concentrate in a small segment of the dating pool.

Lack of intimacy making men so miserable that that it turned society in to a depression and suicide hellscape. Not big of a deal.
