I wish every happy and functional polycule only the best, but when straight guys who fit every single stereotype of a greaseball cheater suddenly discover "ethical nonmonogamy" after 30? They get whatever the opposite of the benefit of the doubt is. The detriment of belief?

well-earned suspicion

it's hard to put into words the theoretical difference between male chauvinist "free love" and principled, ethical polyamory - but in practice, it's easy to tell which is which. a married man suddenly considering polyamory after decades of monogamy is quite the red flag.

I literally just looked him up on fb after writing that and his wife divorced him 2 months ago lol.

My most middle aged old man take but on some level it seems obvious every guy coming out as 'poly' in middle age is basically just a dude who is sort of openly saying "or I'm just going to cheat" and they've lucked into a point in American history where that angle doesn't instantly vilify you.
