Are open relationships better than monogamous ones? Science investigates
A new study from the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada, found that couples in open relationships, who date and sleep with other people, are just as happy as people who are monogamously coupled.
“We found people in consensual, non-monogamous relationships experience the same levels of relationship satisfaction, psychological well-being and sexual satisfaction as those in monogamous relationships,” Jessica Wood, a Ph.D. student in social psychology at the University of Guelph and co-author of the study, writes in a press release.
“This debunks societal views of monogamy as being the ideal relationship structure.”
Researchers surveyed more than 140 people in open relationships and more than 200 in monogamous ones. Participants were asked about relationship satisfaction, how often they considered separating from their partners and whether they confided in their partners.
The study found that couples in open relationships were just as happy as their monogamous counterparts. It also suggested that the most important predictor of a healthy relationship is being on the same page sexually — whether with just one person or many.
The fact that anyone even begins to take this tripe seriously with this embarrassing sample size is the saddest part.

Let's see… for over one thousand years it works with minimal issues as both have roles and come together to raise the nuclear family in a stable environment. But yeah… a few hundred fuckhats from the year 2018 and a scientific "investigation" certainly knows more than an obvious track record which has assured humanities survival for an eon.
dear loard , what is some kind of contest to who could have the most kids.
I like how they all have great poses but they are not all the same
in 2 generations if his boys take after him (and his girls)

thats fucking insane

THIS IS ANOTHER SLIDE THREAD YOU DUMB SUMMER KIDDIES.
go talk about this salacious bullshit on reddit.
Logan Robinson
I like stability and serenity. One woman is plenty. You try raising a kid with 'two moms', get back to me on how that works out for you.
Christopher Ramirez
Considering that you're a woman, is your agenda to get more people into polygamy simply a defense mechanism to justify having slept around and not wanting to feel bad about it?

He speeks the truth. Spreading your seed far and wide is the ultimate red pill. The jews in this thread do not want that.
And God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth.”
Nolan Gutierrez
How fucking stupid are you?
Luke Wright
Not nearly as much of one as you apparently.
Christopher Myers
That's why you get both bitches knocked up with 4 kids a piece then they don't have time to fucking annoy you. Women are fucking annoying bitches when they don't have kids to look after.
Eli Murphy
right
Isaiah Ortiz
Gee, sounds like the religion of piss is right up your alley. You get to fuck multiple underage girls wearing burkas. Get the fuck out of here, kike, your slippery slope ideologies are fucking blatant, it's like you're not even trying to hide it. No fidelity opens up a gateway to a wide range of degeneracy and trust issues.
5 bedrooms, one for each girl. They each pay me to live there, mortgage, utilities and food all taken care of. Each one knows about the other, obviously. Each one is okay with me sleeping with the others. They are not allowed to sleep with any other guy no matter what. If they do, instantly booted from the house.
They can interact with each other, but no sleeping with each other.

>(((intellectuals))) Since when universities became such a pozzed environment?
This level of degemercy is bothersome to me. Anons, you have a duty to your people to marry, be faithful to and have children with a white woman. Preferably around 20-25, Virgin if possible.
You must leave these debauched fantasies to the weak minded socialists. We shun excess. We do not need external validation. The only validation you need is in being a principled man.
Sage for hedonism thread.

No it doesn't. This is not a scientist speaking; this is someone with a clear agenda to push. I would be very interested in reading the actual study.
Jose Cox
Oh yeah really good idea. Have a bunch of maladjusted kids and a bunch of thots asking you for that sweet child support money. Totally not a scam to turn white boys into sex bot obsessed MGTOWfags
Joseph Stewart
What horseshit. "Female PhD student" already says liberal as fuck with an agenda to push 95% of the time. "Canadian" ups that likelyhood. And who did they ask? 140 people? Were they Canadian graduate students in open relationships (meaning feminists and cucks)? Of fucking course they are going to claim better satisfaction. They have never had a good relationship. A gallon of Canada's finest maple syrup says she is just writing horseshit and promoting it in an attempt to make a name for herself / get on CNN / be another "literally who?" feminist that people pay to give talks etc.

Underrated post. White men, wake up, save your race.

not only hitler dubs but there are like some 14s and other 8 possibilities that shit is damn near magical

This is some cuckchan tier jewish slide shit. But anyway. Some Anons for sure have some jewess + nigger open relationship pics. Will start with OP pics.
imagine arguing with not only your wife on a subject, but both of your pussy eating wives. KYS

checkout the skin tone pantyhoes on the right … she cuts her legs
matching psycho multi tone nail polish … this girl is full on wack job
no face … probably a fucking heroine addict, thats the type of girls that are in these relationships … 2 girls plan on taking all of a guys money. Fuck him a couple of times. Tell their pimp tyrone to come by. Extreme sexy time, lets tie each other up. Dude tied up get fucking taken for everything.
They are pushing drungs on you and setting you up for failure
What crap. There's always going to be a power imbalance in any relationship. If I'm doing all the cheating or most of it in an "open relationship" then I'm going to report satisfaction with the relationship, while my partner likely isn't going to.
Leo Collins
so in other words, have more girlfriends wont make me any happier or get any better sex, but now I'll have two bitches to deal with? This is making a case for monogamy
Jayden Garcia
Shill thread OP is a one and done and then switches IPs to spam. sage
Exclusivity on the part of both husband and wife is a major component of a loving relationship. Without that willing abstention from one kind of pleasure, you cannot enjoy the greater happiness of commitment. After all, if your spouse can be with others, then her heart isn't 100% yours, is it?
Another self-reporting crap. Self-reports about sex are useless.
No law - no duty. Your duty is to make such law first.
OP study is in the pdf.
Michael Butler
The article is framed from a perspective that only considers what makes an individual happy as a single person. It is typical liberal narcissism which whines me me me my rights. There is no consideration of duty, what type of relationship sees mothers optimally raise children, nor what type of relationship lasts longest and how that effects a child's upbringing. Sad.

Evan Sullivan
It's a cuck or be cucked kind of world. If you don't show your bitch you are alpha by fucking her sister / friends / mom she will end up fucking tyrone and chad behind your back.
William Brooks
They don't even do that. This is not study about happiness, it study about pretending to be happy, most virtue signaling people will score most. There are no mechanisms to eliminate false self-reports here.
Enjoy paying out the ass "for the sake of the CHIRRUNZ".
Jeremiah Kelly
I mean, this is just ridiculous man.
They took a bunch of freaks and normal people. They allowed these people to self-report on their views in the context of a survey, providing unverified self-reported data - that is to say, there's no way of verifying whether or not the answers given are genuine, in any capacity whatsoever. Then they constructed an overly complex methodology to hide behind in the event someone started trying to make sense of their conclusions.
And then the Jew media posits about it as though its legitimate scientific research, while the paper itself is hidden from 99% of readers by a paywall - of course! - to ensure even the freaks who buy into this shit don't get a good look at it without some effort.
"Hey user me and my friend are BI. Want to be in a relationship with us? We like cooking food and staying for a good movie night and reading the bible! We can all cuddle in bed later ;)" Zig Forums would not be in this poly relationship. You are all morons.
Could a swinger ever know how fulfilling a monogamous relationship is? Maybe the swingers' only concept of happiness is the momentary dopamine rush they get, and then they need to get another "fix", like a drug junkie (which would probably also claim to be perfectly happy while on drugs). How do you quantify that as separate from the wholesome type of lasting contentedness a monogamous, honorable couple has?
Aaron Nelson
that's what most normies think it looks like and what media sells it as that's what it actually looks like
btw, open relationship is never a long term solution. inevitably, it ends in a split when it's either too much for one partner or else when one partner falls in love with someone else and wants to pursue a normal relationship with them without their original partner.
Michael Martin
Garbage in - garbage out. Once again I'm appalled. I keep thinking I'm over being shocked at what comes out of academia these days, but apparently there is no bottom.
You don't. You lump it in together and try to pass it as equivalent, because you're a sick bastard who wants to shill your small-sample pseudo-scientific SURVEY as though its legitimate scientific research based upon verifiable data.
Lincoln Sanders
Come on user! Come snuggle us on the couch were watching some anime! What's wrong you're not man enough to please two women? HEHE okay …. sorry user we'll find someone else
Literally why this jewish invention never works. I'm not FULFILLED with cock ENOUGH i'll go find a REAL MAN and not have kids until i'm 40 if I have any at all. Normal relationships are boring and I'm bored, so I'll get with a girl AND a guy! So fucking progressive how many facebook likes will this get me? If your fantasy of a epic based redpilled open relationship with TWO HOT WHITE GIRLS WOAAAH is feasible let alone the norm, then fucking prove it you hedonist. You can't. You're willingly trying to mislead people into unsustainable forms of social cohesion. Go fucking kill yourself. rgkfy
