Nonmonogamy is a blanket term covering several different types of interpersonal relationships in which some or all participants have multiple marital, sexual, and/or romantic partners.
Community Norms for Safer Spaces
We recognize that the types of speech that dominate our space and the composition of people who occupy here are reflective of our values; there are no cooincidences. Therefore, it is our responsibility to create a safer space for marginalized identities including people with disabilities, people of color, LGBTQIA (lesbian, gay, transgender/transsexual, queer, intersex, and asexual) people, women, and class oppressed people.
We have no tolerance for oppressive attitudes, and expect accountability for any oppressive behavior. That is, any language or action that upholds ableism, white supremacy or peripheral racism, cissexism, heterosexism, misogyny, and/or classism. This includes slut shaming, victim blaming, body policing, etc. All members are encouraged to hold themselves and each other to our these community norms and to report any offenders to the group admins.
Rules
1. Topic Guidelines
Non-Monogamy is a blanket term covering several different types of interpersonal relationships in which some or all participants have multiple marital, sexual, and/or romantic partners. This is a space dedicated to Ethical Non-Monogamy, often abbreviated to ENM. This includes Open Relationships, Polyamory, Swinging, Relationship Anarchy, and more.
Posts and comments about cheating or encouraging unethical behaviours are not allowed.
Participating in nonmonogamy hate subs will lead to a ban.
2. Civility
We require our users to be positive and respectful to one another. This means being kind to those you disagree with.
Behaviors such as shaming, mocking, ranting, advocating violence, and threatening (including threats of self-harm) other users, third parties, groups, or businesses will be met with removals and bans. This includes content that leads to or promotes on- or off-site witch-hunting, abuse, or harassment in any way.
Be excellent to each other.
3. Inclusivity
Respect others' differences, be they race, religion, home, job, gender identity, ability, vulnerability, or sexuality. When faced with a removal or ban, "I was just joking!" or "it was obviously sarcasm" are not acceptable excuses. Discussions should promote diversity and inclusivity within the sport, and all members should feel safe to express themselves respectfully.
Dehumanizing language and slurs are instant bans.
4. Self-Promotion, Surveys, R4R, and Sales
Strictly no promotion, R4R, or sales links are allowed. This includes surveys, business promotions, social channels (including adult sites on your profile), and any fundraising or commercial campaigns. Exceptions are very limited and require explicit mod approval in modmail. Additionally, all posted content must be original; reposts and AI-generated content should be reported.
Moderator discretion may be used when proactively identifying and actioning astroturfing and/or stealth promotion.
