I would never agree to those terms, so they don't apply to me.
the problem is that society, states, and religion pushes those standards as if they are the only correct form of relationships. they are arbitrary rules based on ancient forms of control, where women were seen as free household labor and baby factories.

I empathize. Women are absolutely coerced into a role by modern society a habit we are sadly falling back into and that is horrible. However, to say that no two people wish for a monogamous relationship and that trust ultimately doesn't matter is a step too far for me. But I understand why someone would feel that way. I too have seen people trapped in a loveless marriage.
