Monogamy vaccine?

What do you think of this? I can see it now: before the wedding, head off to the doctor-- blood test for the marriage license, and then an anti-promiscuity shot...

Thanks to Mark for letting me know about this bit of research.

Hmmm. So what happens if you lose your partner (name your circumstance: death or divorce)? Would you need a procedure to remove the gene that made you monogamous to the original partner; or, if a replacement is needed, can you overcome the monogamous gene? If it can be overcome, does it really work? And (in a modified version of a coffee cup someone near and dear purchased for me) what's the point?

If I thought my partner needed the gene, what would be the point?

"I think you're gonna cheat on me, so you gotta get this shot."

I don't think so.

Besides, we'd miss out on the celebrity escapades. "Who's J.Lo married to this week?"
