• Abstract: The systems of amatonormativity and monogamy overlap, influencing interpersonal relationships. It’s possible to notice the devaluation of support networks, as those don’t adhere to the dyadic model imposed by monogamy, furthermore it’s noticeable the social discrimination suffered by people who diverge from those norms. This research was made utilizing the qualitative study method, with a bibliographic review, of literature in between 2011 and 2025, of the concepts designated. Literature shows that the amato-monogamy system offers prejudice to the quality of life, as it imposes limitations to the social relations, therefore prejudicing the mental health, thus it justifies the interest of psychology on the term. The main objective of this paper is to comprehend what it is the amato-monogamy system and how it works, evidencing a need to produce more psychological empirical researches to quantify the impact of such in the psyche.
