I can definitely agree with that. We are the only species that can build symbolically-mediated bonds. Because of that tremendous power... literally any type of socio-sexual organization is in principle achievable if both parties are committed to it. Like you said though, be prepared to but in the time and energy (#physics).

My whole point with my perspective is to try and alleviate some of the confusion people in my generation have with the current system trends regarding relationships. People in their 20s aren't getting married and having kids at the same rate. This is causing some confusion. Some people feel they are failing or not being an adult properly. I was one of them not too long ago.
