Furthermore, since when does 'monogamy' mean 'one woman'. It is not USED
that way and its dictionary definition is not even that. I think you
are confusing it with 'monogyny'.

monogyny	the having of one female spouse at the same time
monoandry	the having of one male spouse at the same time
monogamy	the having of one spouse at the same time

polygyny	the having of more than one female spouse at the same time
polyandry	the having of more than one male spouse at the same time
polygamy	the having of more than one spouse at the same time
