A lot of words to say that you're not in a committed relationship.
This is basic relationship stuff. Also if you're in a longer term relationship, bailing for the sole purpose of fucking around is beyond shitty. manipulating your partner so you can fuck around while still having their emotional support is even worse.
All of this is very well understood when a man is shitty to a women. Yet when the reverse is true there's a million different excuses that pour out of the woodwork.
I've never seen a successful open relationship. It always ends poorly, it always comes out that the man felt pressured, and it always comes out that part of the reason they let themselves suffer for this long is because everyone else acted like this was normal. The only time I've ever "met" someone in a successful open relationship is online, where there's absolutely no context.
Lol this is toxic masculinity, do some research.
It is in no way shape or form toxic masculinity to want to be in a monogamous relationship. It is also not toxic masculinity to expect your partner won't bail to screw other dudes, or think that your partner pushing for an "ethical" non monogamous relationship after years of monogamy is anything but ethnical.
We wouldn't even be having this conversation if genders were flipped. You're basically attempting to weaponize feminism to justify the mistreatment of men.
Feminism applies to both genders, how would switching genders change anything?
Fuck off you know the difference between denotation and connotation. There's a reason why you don't see feminists ever taking about "toxic femininity" or wearing apparel that says shit like "female tears".
