為何安於單身才能找到真愛 (Why Only the Happily Single Find True Love)
Intro
Hello VoiceTubers! How are you today? I am Mia. Have you ever heard of a term in English called “serial monogamy?” I learned this term probably two years ago. I’ll reveal what it means at the end of today’s episode, for it is related to our video today about “Why Only the Happily Single Find True Love.” Now, it’s time for today’s sentence.

Sentence
It's time to liberate companionship from the shackles of coupledom, and make it as widely and as easily available as sexual liberators wanted sex to be.

Pronunciation Tips
1. companionship: (1) Four parts: com-pa-nion-ship /kəmˈpæn.jən.ʃɪp/ (2) Where to stress (3) The pronunciation of /j/
2. coupledom: (1) Two parts: couple-dom /ˈkʌp.əldəm/
3. easily: (1) /ˈiː.zəl.i/ (2) Notice: long vowels in this word. (3) “s” is voiced here instead of voiceless.

Outro
Simply put, Serial monogamy is a kind of relationship style where the person engages in a new relationship quickly, right after the breakup, and continuously has short-term relationships. I think why those people tend to have short-term relationships is because, first, to some degree they need support from their lovers, so they somehow blindly find a lover not out of love, but need. So second, lacking enough time to see whether the person is what you really want is hard to build a real relationship with, which makes the new relationship die early. All in all, give yourself some time to be single, and see what you really want. This is the end of today’s Pronunciation Challenge.Bye-Bye!
