I’d have to ask them to explain the question. “Ethically non-monogamous”? What the hell does that mean?
Having multiple partners but everyone involved knows and is okay with it. I've more often heard it as "ethical polyamory."
Last time I checked, that's just called polyamory. The thing where they don't know is called cheating. We don't need a qualifier pushing a conservative narrative of what love is.
Poly means relationships, enm is just sex.
Isn't "open relationship/marriage" a term for that?
Yes, and also polyamory.
People like their little labels and they like having the one that makes them feel the specialist.
Hey bro, I went to school for years to become the specialist.
Yes. Some sluts like getting all autistic about how exactly they're fucking around.
Charts and diagrams and powerpoints about who puts it into whose hole and for what reason.
