I’ve seen that “throuple” before.

Don’t even try to tell me that the middle “bride” isn’t a man, baby!

Care to have 5 or 6 wives nagging you?

Go ahead, hop in the sack with as many as you want. I’ll stick with my disease-free monogamy.

If you’re 19 you can be forgiven for believing this could mean more sex.

If you’re over 30 I’m sure you’re pining for more second guessing and indecision.

Well, not quite the way to ask it. Monogamy has been gone for quite some time. What I assume is the issue is will multiple partners be permitted to marry.

Time will tell.

Next up; pedophilia, then incest. Even odds whether bestiality or necrophilia is the last taboo.

No. That will probably be cannibalism.

What if we all came to view “our relationships as a pyramid structure with our primary partner at the top and a host of lovers, friends, spiritual soul mates, colleagues, and acquaintances beneath that?”

Yeah, but what do you do after you graduate from high school ?

I was eviscerated at work when a woman asked for advice. Her husband of at least two decades has come out as “gay”. His advice to maintain a family for the children is adopting an “open marriage”. She wanted to know if she should go to counseling to accept his condition, get a divorce or go to the support group for single spouses of gay men someone referred her to.
I said that if her husband has been faithful to her for 20 years and wants to maintain his family for the sake of the children, he should get counseling to control his urges as he has been and stay faithful to her while raising the kids. If he wants to cheat on her, do what you’d do if he cheated on her with another woman - divorce, get the house and kids. But don’t have an open marriage, where he exposes her to STDs and wastes her money on his side pursuits.
