Benefits of Ethical Non-Monogamy

In this post, we go over some of the benefits of ethical non-monogamy.

  • More faith and independence.

A study conducted in 2017 aimed to examine the contrasting traits of monogamous and consensually non-monogamous relationships. Surprisingly, the findings showed that CNM relationships had notably higher levels of trust and significantly lower levels of jealousy compared to their monogamous counterparts. However, it remains unknown whether individuals involved in CNM inherently possess greater trust or if their unique relationship dynamic cultivates such an environment.

Nevertheless, this distinction presents an intriguing discovery as it challenges the widely held notion that monogamy surpasses polygamy when it comes to minimizing envy risk. Interestingly enough, our own survey conducted in 2020 aligned with these results by emphasizing increased openness and trust as highly valued benefits of non monogamy.

Trust serves as a foundation for providing partners with more freedom within their relationships. By allowing connections beyond friendship outside the primary relationship previous feelings of envy can dissolve. Consequently, there is no need to adopt a detective like role or exert influence over ones partner.

  • Better communication

Improved communication is often cited as one of the numerous ethical benefits of practicing non monogamy. Our recent survey conducted in 2020 supports this claim. Revealing it to be one of the most advantageous aspects. Regrettably within a monogamous relationship individuals can easily conform to the established structure and live without actively engaging in meaningful communication with their partner. Hence. Both these actions can occur within a monogamous relationship as well.

It is possible to have poor communication in CNM relationships as well; however, the challenge increases as the relationship becomes more committed. In CNM relationships, it is customary to negotiate and reach agreements, have lengthy conversations about love, jealousy, and sex, and discuss boundaries, preferences, rules, and emotions.

  • More exciting sexual and romantic experiences

Non monogamy is often seen as a way to enrich ones’ sexual and romantic experiences. The idea behind this belief is that by not depending on just one partner for all our sexual needs we create room for new and thrilling possibilities in our intimate connections.

  • Personal development through the practice of non-monogamy

These factors’ cumulative effect may positively impact one’s personal development. Isn’t it inevitable that one will experience personal development when they can both give and receive love from many partners, engage in meaningful conversation, trust others and be trusted, and explore their sexuality without inhibitions or fear of being judged?

Moreover, its worth noting that an individuals inclination towards non monogamy isn’t entirely determined by their sexual preferences alone. This fact might be overlooked by many people. Its’ crucial to acknowledge the plethora of possible romantic connections one can pursue.

Some unions may solely revolve around physical intimacy. While others might not involve any sexual aspect whatsoever.

The underlying notion here is that varying types of relationships exist, each capable of meeting distinct needs and contributing to personal development in its own way.

Consequently akin to the advantage found in sexual diversity within non monogamous relationships individuals often find value in the presence of non sexual diversity as well.
