Hypocrisy a Trois?

I really have no idea where to start with commenting on this article on triad relationships versus sensible poly- anyone care to start?

Does that mean it doesn't make sense now?

I just find it ridiculous that the authors comments can be read as saying 'cheating and deception are okay, if you can pretend the other person really knows about it' and/or non-monogamy is okay, but you have to pretend it isn't really happening.

Grr.

Well, no less sense than I normally make. :)

I get the impression he's only got comparitive experience of monogamy. His idea that you shouldn't talk about it probably comes from not expecting it to be possible.

I think a vast number of people would disagree with you on that one...
