OK, that doesn't seem great. But maybe your two girlfriends can (once jealousy has been painstakingly dealt with) be friends with each other. That way once you've had sex with both of them and you just want quiet time, you can tell them go to bother each other instead of you!

Another thing. If you are a serial monogamist who has seduced 5 different women, you might now have either 1 or 0 girlfriends. If you are a polyamorist who has seduced 5 different women, you might now have 3 girls in your polycule. Yes, probably shared, but still.

A "trad" monogamously married couple can also be win-win by gathering friends for each other, by doing romantic work for each other that generates more benefits than it costs, by specializing economically (childcare/house vs moneymaking), etc.

Yet a lot of people are ending up in the Serial-mono category, probably because it is the thing that requires the least work. It is the low-effort default relationship style (again, myself included).

But men and women are the same therefore polygyny is the same as polyamory so when understood correctly polyamory goes back to our entire ancestral past. Checkmate trad losers.
