    Your partner is not your property. They have the right to fuck who they want.

    They dont have the right to endanger your health, which is why they need to tell you

      In the context of the comment chain, you’re saying that a person who willfully violates a monogamous marriage vow should still be able to claim alimony in the event of a divorce, simply because they informed their spouse they were doing it?

      Fuck that. What the hell are you thinking? Please tell me this isn’t what you mean.

        Marriages shouldn’t be monogamous. Thats antiquated and ridiculous

        Some people get married for tax benefits, and the law shouldn’t say anything about whether or not the marriage is poly or mono. I mean, sure, let people opt into it if they want legally enforced monogamy, like a prenup. But by default marriage shouldn’t require monogomy. Thats insane.

      There is absolutely a difference between having an open relationship where both parties consent, and having a relationship where one person just sleeps around, but it’s totally fine because the other was informed it was happening.

      Your partner may not be your property, but that doesn’t mean that sleeping around just because you told them it was happening is ok.
