For anyone prone to experiencing secondhand embarrassment, there's a scene in Molly Roden Winter's debut, “More: A Memoir of Open Marriage,” that should come with a warning.
Winter is at her home in Brooklyn. She has just had s*x with her boyfriend while her two children sleep upstairs. Her husband, Stewart, consented to her tryst, but feeling guilty, she dashes naked into the kitchen to text him: Don't worry, she writes, “he has nothing on you as a lover.” But instead of texting her husband, she accidentally sends the message to her boyfriend, who leaves in a huff, and later breaks up with her. Winter, devastated, begs her husband to come home to comfort her.
“I still get a little nauseous thinking about it,” said Winter, 51, who was sipping tea in the living room of her bright and airy townhouse in Park Slope, Brooklyn. “Talk about the cringiest, cringiest, most awful thing that could happen.”
It's far from the only agonizing and breathtakingly candid scene in “More,” which documents Winter's often turbulent experience of open marriage — the resentment and jealousy she felt toward her husband's girlfriends, the flashes of guilt and shame, and the challenges of juggling her obligations as a wife and mother with her pursuit of sexual and romantic fulfillment.
Winter is keenly aware that people may judge her for the behavior she describes in “More.” But she also said she felt compelled to write about her experience, in part because she felt that non-monogamy is so often depicted as something happening on the fringes, not as a lifestyle that married moms pursue.

Yeah, that bit made me laugh. She rushes home to tell hubby all about flirting with a guy, clearly hoping that he'll be jealous and this will reassure her that she's still hot and desirable because she gets to brag that a strange guy was interested in her and hubby will be all "no, you my woman, nobody else gets to have you!", and instead he's all "go ahead and bang him if you want, hey opening up our marriage is a great idea!" and then he goes out chasing hot chicks, like any normal guy would do once given the chance. Who would be surprised about this?

You never know, in a different context he could have been looking for divorce material so he could dump her and not get walked over in the divorce settlement.
This guy was just looking for the excuse to go out and bang hot younger women without giving her the chance to be all pissy about it because "hey, you started it".

The long pole in our cultural tent is gone with the dissolution of religion. Now all of the cultural memory of "things you should and shouldn't do" is washed with it because we were taught those things under the auspices of "because god said".
So people think it's all like pork and shellfish consumption - we're better now. We're above these things. But we don't actually know that we're above a lot of those things, and given the state of affairs post-religion I think we're probably going to have to re-learn a lot of things with empiricism as the new standard. And that's going to be painful as we develop sample sizes and overcome the new superstitious paganism of DEI.

It's plain that she started this not because she wanted to go out and bang strange guys, she wanted to make her husband jealous to prove he still wanted her because she was still desirable.
Only it didn't work like that, so then she had to put her money where her mouth was and go bang strange guys while he cheerfully went out to the "salad bar" and had his pick of hot younger women. So she ended up jealous of him.
You shouldn't boast about being able to get s*x outside your marriage if you're not willing to commit to the entire lifestyle, and you certainly shouldn't give your husband (or wife) the chance to go out and bang whoever they like with no remorse about it because hey, this was all your idea in the first place.

All of these people should die. She's an idiot, her husband is an idiot, and if I believe this article, it's no wonder she wanted to whore around because her parents were also adulterers. If you want to chase strange, do it outside the home and don't bang your hookups where your kids are in the house.
Are we supposed to think she's so amazing and brave? This is just adultery, it's been going on for millennia, lots of aristocratic and royal families had 'open marriages' where both spouses had lovers. She's not as special snowflake as she thinks.

Polyamory is usually jumping through a lot of extra hoops and misery for little to no improvement in happiness. People who say they're happier being poly are almost always coping with being incapable of finding someone who fulfills enough of their needs, which isnt inpossible if youre not a defective loser.
