Sausage conservative confirmed.


My opinion is enough work has been done in last decade(s) concerning "sexual freedom and acceptance", so maybe it's time to stop and wait 1 generation.

Shit cuffs... You're a virgin?


Well, the SJW in me says that I don't believe in virginity, but yes, I've not had sex.

Yup. Conservative as fuck.

That confirms it. Sausage has just been trolling for the alt-right all this time. Pretending to be a liberal to make us look bad.

Maybe a day you will learn that things cant change too fast, or it leads to serious problems like counter-reactions...
Enough has been done, wait 1 generation and let me know.

Cheated on only.

Turns out she did me a favour. We were each other’s firsts so I had no idea back then that sex didn’t have to be so fucking boring... anyway, the other guy got bored with her too after a couple of weeks, rekt

Education should concentrate on safe sex imo, which is not necessarily dependent upon monogamy.

Eh, I'm 27 now.

I find myself only wanting to have sex with someone with whom I have an emotional connection with. Just hasn't happened. Also, I've been moving all over the country the past couple years doing non-profit/service work, so I've just not made relationships/sex a priority. Sex is great, no doubt!

Well ok then. I gotta agree sex is much better if you have an emotional connection. But it's pretty great even if you don't. Sorta like coke and lime is pretty nice it's just nicer with Captain Jack's.

Never been cheated on (not that I know of at least), but I’ve cheated on exes in the past.

I did not see myself pursuing a very long relationship with them, so it didn’t matter much to me at that time. I’ve always been honest and admitted my infidelities when confronted. If they’re at the point where they ask the question, chances are they already know.

I have been cheated on. Once.
I would never cheat on anyone. I've never experienced anything quite like the feeling of being cheated on by someone I loved and I wouldn't ever do that to someone I was with. If it got to that I'd break up with them before sleeping with anyone else.

I wouldn't say that non-monogamy needs to be the 'one true relationship' but for me, after experimenting with open and polyamorous relationships I'd have to say it's the only kind of relationship I'd want to be in. As long as it is clear from the start and both parties agree to it then whatever anyone is comfortable with is their business though imo.

I think that people would probably learn the value of monogamy from a world in which poly and open were commonplace. I know I did.


Completely agreed on all points, though I've personally never been cheated on (that I know of anyway, but I'm very confident about it).

If someone intends on cheating in an exclusive relationship, at least break up with your partner before doing so.

I've known many people in polyamorous relationships and they've nearly invariably ended poorly, either due to jealousy or whatever else. That's not to say they can't work. I think they are especially more viable in cultures where it's traditionally accepted e.g. Mormonism. But not for me, and not for most people.

--

As per OP: I see no reason why non-monogamous sex/relationships should be an aspect of K-12 curriculum. Monogamy should be emphasized as typically morally and pragmatically superior. Monogamous relationships may have a very poor success rates, but polygamous relationships are even worse. And stable monogamy is overwhelmingly better for raising children.
