Yesterday I saw a program on TV that got me thinking. Its a couple who are very comfortable and not jealous that the man and the women see other people. They are still in love.
Given that in some countries divorce is very high and higher than 50% of marriages, and that divorce is so painful for the people and the children involved. Would we not be a happier people if we accepted infidelity (which seems to be quite natural for humans, given the amount of divorces because of it) rather than fight it?
I am sure this would need training on our part, but we train for a lot of things. I mean, even walking down a New York street needs training. Think about what would happen if you had to take a New York street and put it in the middle of IRAN or some other fanatically muslim country. The cultural clash would be horrific.
Is being so touchy about infidelity cultural as well?
Does it make sense to be so hurt with infidelity if it seems so natural?
