I'm all for inclusiveness, but... if you haven't been there, you just don't know what Ustwo is talking about.
I see all these couples around me with such narrow views of what's possible, and such straight-laced, culture-imposed opinions about what relationships are supposed to be. I don't know what's best for them, and I definitely don't think my lifestyle is for everyone, but I DO feel sorry for people whose world-view doesn't allow them to say how their lives and relationships and modes of sexual expression are going to go.
That's not to say there aren't plenty of completely happy and satisfied monogamous couples. Just that there are lots who are doing whatever they're doing because they're locked onto the rails about it and would never dream of considering alternatives. Those are the ones I feel sorry for.
