I guess I see it more as "the committed type" than the "monogamy/marrying type." Clearly you are the committed type... at least, as far as I can tell.
And I do think that some men, for whatever reasons (quite possibly genetic), are not cut out for long-term commitment... the biological evidence shows that this doesn't have to be a character flaw.
However, it would be annoying if people started claiming this as some kind of deficiency and reason for divorcing... "Well, I have that Non-Committal Gene, which makes me unable to stay with this marriage," etc. That would be turning the whole thing on its head... an excuse for poor behavior/immaturity, I mean.
