How old were you when you realised that monogamy, fidelity, tradition, etc. are spooks, and that any desire for them comes to personal desire and/or insecurity?

>any desire for them is just personal desire
>desire is desire
Gettin real deep here
>>466882
>it's a spook
>because it's personal desire
Isn't personal one of the least spooky things there is?
>>466882
Wait.
What?
>>466892
What I'm saying is most people on 4chan, especially on /r9k/, are very vocal supporters of these things but cannot provide any solid arguments for them.
In the end, it just comes down to taste.
>>466895
It's not a spook because it's personal desire, it's a spook and THEREFORE how desirable it is comes down to your personal tastes.

Tradition and fidelity are more economically viable than free, multi partnered love. Also a safe and most stable way to raise a family. Something you'll probably never do, op.

All those things are spooks too
Spooks aren't bad, you just need to realize that they're reflections of your own desires, and not inherently good (although I suppose at that point they'd no longer be spooks)
Seriously. PLEASE GO BACK TO REDDIT

because it provides alternative to degenerate modern culture
>>466882
What's a spook.
Also what do you propose we replace these values with?
>>466900
>there are no arguments for tradition
>except it working and laying the foundation for the safe and comfortable world we live in now
Coddled first world faggot having opinions about how people lived before Starbucks, lel
>>466882
I thought that was an old lady in a hat.
just because values are spooks doesn't mean they aren't useful
