I think all this is saying is that people who are unaware practice monogamy only because they were told they should, by their religion or cultural standards. Before I heard the word polyamory, I was raised to believe that a man and a woman fall in love and get married and have babies. Now I know it's not that simple.
Becoming aware of this raised my consciousness in some sense.
Choosing to practice monogamy is higher consciousness than practicing it because you think you have no other choice.
