Open marriages are one thing. Banging your sister-in-law takes it to another level of stupid, and telling your mother about it takes it off the chart. Even animals know better than to sh.t where they eat. And why bother to get married if you are not going to be monogamous?

I figure, adults -- even related ones -- can do as they please. But then what to do when kids come along? Can you keep all of that a secret? Kids figure stuff out!

Heh my # is 6669

Didn't say I agreed with it, just said I believe it goes on.

I'm normally a pretty live-and-let-live person myself. The good thing here is that nobody is sneaking around. I don't have sisters. But I think of all of the women I know... Some of them keep their husbands and boyfriends on pretty short leashes. I've had women give me the side-eye for *talking* to their husbands. In my wildest imagination, I cannot fathom another woman offering to let me borrow her husband for some naked yoga. And if one did, I can't imagine thinking that it would be a good idea to accept such an offer. If Alicia just wants to do the horizontal mambo, there are plenty of single, unrelated men who'd be happy to accomodate her. And what if Sam decides that he prefers Alicia? IMHO, they are asking for trouble.

There are women who aren't jealous and can handle it.

I'm not one of them.

Sister stuff is pretty out there, tho.

That may be true, but extremely attractive and successful men are not exactly a dime a dozen.

Me, neither. And I have never met a woman that was THAT jealousy-free, even out here in the land of fruit, nuts, and flakes. It has to be pretty unusual.

Maybe they just watched "The Big Chill" too many times.

Did you know that the corpse's hands which opens the movie are Kevin Costner?

What does his success have to do with her? Do you think it's important to her that she is boned by someone successful? Personally I dont care if she is a CEO, as long as she is pleasing on the eye.

Those are the type of guys you marry. If you're just wanting NSA sex, pick up a 20 something at a bar.

Women in particular are drawn to men with brains ... success is often times tied to this. A successful, polished, nice looking man, is going to be much more attractive to a lot of women ... especially one who seems to be successful herself or heading in that direction herself.

Women also are more often looking for something more than just NSA sex. So in that regard, brains are part of the gameplan. But if NSA sex IS the gameplan, brains are irrelevant.

LW1: Your daughters are TOTALLY effin' with you. At least, I *hope* they are.
If they're being truthful <shudder>, then they're both completely amoral whackjobs. And YOU raised them. Congrats.

Maybe to you.

I would rather have NSA sex with a woman with brains than with one without and I'm a guy. Dopey women are not attractive to me ... Jessica Simpson and Anna Nicole Smith may as well look like the hunch back of Norte Dame.

Sweet.

1. People have open marriages, there is a shoe for every foot (as my gramps said) so I can believe the scenario the LW spelled out. I can also believe that mommmy wasn't very attentive and nurturing when she was raising her daughters.
2.

Hey, she taught them to share nicely with each other!

There are plenty of us who aren't, and can.

Yup. I saw a documentary on multiple marriages (it was one man, two women, for the most part) and it was very interesting. Completely changed my mind on the whole thing.

If you can do it in a healthy, loving way, I see no harm. In many cultures, having more than one wife is not unusual at all. I can see if you grow up in one of those cultures, youdon't bat at an eye at this stuff.
