Monogomy is an invention of the patriarchal society.
In the early days of human history, authority was passed down through the female line (matriarchal society) because that was the only bloodline that could be proven. You could prove who your mother was, but not who your father was. And, under many of the pagan religions, women chose as many partners as they wanted.
In order to secure the power for the men, monogomy was invented so that a bloodline through the father could be "proved" and a woman could be punished for putting that bloodline in doubt.
In other words, promiscuity is the original state of humanity.
