In my opinion both!. Even in nature, although you may not have "marriages" many mammals stick together, forming family type situations, having a monogamy type relationships such as beaver's, foxes, bats, deer's!. One thing to take into account is that they only make up about 3!.5 % of the animal world and occurs mostly in mammals!. So i believe that it is surely something natural but "pushed" on society!.!.!.maybe so we don't breed and over-breed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It’s a socially conditioned response taught to most peoples who follow a belief system where polygamy or having more than one “life partner” is taboo!. In America this is pounded into youngsters heads from birth in most cases (thankfully not in mine)!.
You grow up, get married (to someone of the opposite sex most of society hopes, lol) and have a family!. Much pressure is placed on the young to follow this template, though, this appears to be changing!. Many cultures vary; it is best to look at as many as one can before one chooses what manner in which one lives out their life!.
Humans dislike change, and this is played upon by this ideology here in the States!. If your entire life has been tuned to behave in a certain manner it can be very hard to except different views or customs!. Being in the service I saw many cultures, some I found better, some worse than my home country of America was on this aspect of life!.
In simple terms, choose your poison, but be prepared to deal with societies sometimes force fed antidotes!.
Be well all!.
