One groups of genetic hardware emulations required by the mind/brain to support promiscuity are associated with STD's. These result from certain reproductive behavior and increase in odds as we shift to increasing promiscuity.

Most humans do not have natural genetic hardware to generate the software emulation within the immune system to deal with these diseases, especially AIDS. Science, which is mind/brain has to create hardware emulation (medicines) to extend the natural genetic immune system to deal with these.

If we took away all such hardware emulation associated with the natural genetic immune system, as well as mind/brain prevention behavior not in genetics, monogamy may not even notice the difference, since it does not require as much hardware support. Promiscuity on the other hand, which has a higher hardware emulation requirement would creates a paradox for itself.

Human promiscuity, although increasing genetic diversity, which is good for genetics, will also create STD's, which have the potential to make the same healthy genetic specimens sickly, due to negative hardware emulation created by the STD's. The same negative hardware emulation can also be passed on to the unborn and undermine the natural genetic advantages of the offspring stemming from the induce genetic diversity.

Monogamy is not purely genetic instinct, in my opinion, since it also has a mind/brain connection. However, because it has a lower emulation requirement, it is closer to natural, at least for humans. This may be different for other animals, who don't have the same level of willful mind/brain influence on genetic hardware and software emulation to create unbalanced genetic cycles that need additional brain/mind requirement.
