7. #3: Monogamy and Consensual Non-Monogamy as a SEXUAL and RELATIONSHIP ORIENTATION
COMPULSORY MONOGAMY: The idea that monogamy is the only correct way to structure relationships, that monogamous relationships are natural, have always been natural, and will continue to be the only legitimate form of relationship. Compulsory Monogamy is inescapable, it inevitably has shaped your ideas about relationships (Sheff, 2018). 👭

8. #3: Monogamy and Consensual Non-Monogamy as a SEXUAL and RELATIONSHIP ORIENTATION
CONSENSUAL and ETHICAL NON-MONOGAMY (CNM) is an umbrella category that covers a range of relationship styles that describe openly conducted multiple partner relationships. CNM ranges from polygamy and polyamory on the serious, long term relationship end of the spectrum, to open, monogamish, or swinging relationships that may have more emphasis on sexual variety and less emphasis on emotional intimacy with multiple partners.

11. Non-Monogamy isn’t Cheating
We would call that non-consensual, non-ethical non-monogamy…
Non-monogamy is about honesty, communication, consent, and collaboration… these things are not present in cheating or non-consensual non-monogamy

And both of these issues need quality therapy to resolve!

13. #5: As Security, Safety, and Stability Increase in a relationship, DESIRE, AROUSAL, and EROTICISM Decreases
Sex therapist and psychotherapist Esther Perel in her book The State of Affairs stated that, “contained within the small circle of the wedding band are vastly contradictory ideals. We want our chosen one to offer stability, safety, predictability, and dependability… and we want that very same person to supply awe, mystery, adventure, and risk.”
