I don't think it's that simple, really. Just like there are different sexual inclinations, it seems to me that there are different inclinations for relationships. More people are probably capable of non-monogamy than realize it, but all the evidence I've seen points to monogamy as the standard for human interaction. Of course, being standard doesn't make it superior... just standard. There are people I know who are definitely more suited for non-monogamy, and I think with the right personality it's certainly possible for someone to learn non-monogamy, but it's not likely to be easy.
Anyway, it's possible, and probably more possible than it seems in our culture, but certainly not the norm, and I don't think it ever will be.
