The conversation started last night after a tweep asked Boity if she would be open to the idea of a polygamous marriage or relationship and it seems she would be!
The media personality prefaced her discussion by asking her followers what they look for in a partner.
I still have a lot to unlearn before giving an honest answer to this. Real talk. For now...I'm willing to discuss it with a future partner. https://t.co/989hgcZuM5

Question: what are the most important qualities you look for in a partner?
— Boity Thulo (@Boity) December 11, 2016
After receiving an avalanche of answers, she then asked what they would do if they found the person that has all these qualities but also has a partner whom they are honest about and honest with.
Great. So say you find one who has ALL the qualities you have ever wanted in a partner. They treat incredibly well, make you happy, etc...

And the "perfect" partner happens to have another partner. And s/he is honest about this to you. What do you do?

See, this is at the top of why I started this conversation. How can the idea of a human being loving another being hurt us? :( https://t.co/HdvDla7I21

That's it. The ego. https://t.co/0Ot52mbTqw

If love is our natural state of being, isn't the idea of loving just one person completely unnatural if not impossible?

She then dropped a truth bomb about her feelings on monogamy...
I ask these questions as a form of learning an alternative way to love. I personally think the socially accepted way is flawed & depressing.

It's been scientifically proven that there is a tiny percentage of mammals that do naturally form monogamous bonds. Humans excluded. 😏 https://t.co/y0Vn5Il7Gp

So territorial, it's frightening. And limiting.
— Boity Thulo (@Boity) December 11, 2016
Being territorial is stressful AF. No peace of mind whatsoever. Ever.

Hmmm! So if you're a dude who can afford to love and support more than one partner, you might have what it takes to win Boity's heart.
Ladies, if your man suggested it, would you want Boity to be your sister wife?
