In Relationships.
I’ve been told that all people in an Adultery are equally unethical & blameful. I don’t agree with this; i believe the upholding of exclusivity is incumbent on people in relationships, not those without.
in other words, if someone with a marriage ring is trying to bang you, its not your responsibility to chastise them & make sure they respect their partner.
i’m curious what other people think & any radical theory on the constitution of relationships, this stuff is very interesting to me
I think takes like that are immature, but I get it. Cheating was devastating to my family, so I felt really strongly about it for a long time.
It’s no fun but a partner is not a posession and people are just shitty sometimes, and sex isn’t magic. Its just a thing people do sometimes that sucks, but I don’t think it rises to the level of the sort of vile abuse that otherwise goes on in some relationships

Pretty much – the core wrong is lying, and it’s hard to see how the heightened distain some people have for cheating isn’t rooted in some type of possessory concept of relationships. I see a lot of uncomfortable parallels between how some folks talk about cheating and how libertarians talk about trespassing.
