'I want to know what love is and I want you to show me'
A strong majority of Canadians view romantic and sexual exclusivity as an ideal relationship arrangement, according to a new survey.
Similarly, 89 per cent of single Canadians, who were not dating at the time of the survey, reported romantic exclusivity as an ideal, and 79 per cent for sexual exclusivity. The percentages decreased among singles who were dating one or more people but more than half still considered both arrangements as ideal.
"Having an ethical, or consensually, non-monogamous relationship is generally viewed with suspicion and many people who aren’t involved in ethically non-monogamous relationships would consider it cheating and see people who engage in consensually non-monogamous relationships as being less human, and their relationships as less satisfying and committed.
"The best thing to think of them as, is another reflection of how we are narrating the ideal love story to ourselves socially, and not necessarily as evidence of what's really best for people, or what they really would want if they hadn't been given literally the story of The One so many times throughout their entire lives."
