Tiger Woods is a very good golfer but his reputation as a cheating husband made him a bad character.–;

It must be hard for Tiger to concentrate on his golf game with everything that has gone on recently.

This article was in no way intended to condone the hurtful behavior of Tiger Woods. Rather it is intended to show that good people across the world struggle with fidelity because for many it is not natural. Infidelity happens all the time regardless of the taboo and serious consequences. We as a culture need to take a look at the reality that many people are not monogamous. The world is full of diversity and people’s preference for monogamy or polyamory is one difference. People should know they have a choice and non-monogamy is an honest, ethical and loving choice for many.

As for prominent people who practice some form of polyamory, there are many. One does not have to be married to be polyamorous, in fact many are not. Elizabeth the great was passionate and loved many. Franklin Roosevelt had long term women “friends”, one of whom lived in the white house and his wife Eleanor had her own home to keep the company of her female “friends”. Carl Jung was married and had two long term lovers with the full knowledge of his wife.

Life is full of diversity and we need the freedom to love one or many in anyway that works for us personally. Polyamory is about trust, honesty, communication, commitment and love.

I am dismayed that in an attempt to legitimize your lifestyle you would claim things about history that are clearly not true. Elizabeth I had many lovers, it’s true. But Elizabeth I was not a philanderer because she never married. She knew that staying single was the only way to retain the power of the British crown. Marriage to a non-English member of the nobility would mean a weaker England in a time when England really needed to announce its seriousness as a power in the Age of Exploration. Marriage to a lesser nobleman of England was unthinkable; it would only show weakness.

I’ve heard some logical arguments regarding polyamory, but when you use such fuzzy logic, you hurt your cause.

And by the way, Tiger Woods is not polyamorous. He’s an egomaniac. Please tell me you know the difference.

I love this article. You are so right when you say that for many people monogamy is the only apparent socially acceptable choice. I also agree that it sets people up to feel that you can be monogamous, cheat or be single. Talk about a lack of choices. I feel that everyone would greatly benefit from being empowered to explore what kind of relationship dynamic works for them, and to be allowed and supported in feeling great about their choice. Imagine what kind of juicy goodness we might all experience in our relationships if we were able to design them to fit each of us perfectly.
Thanks for your commitment to educating and supporting others in this choice!
You Rock!

I support and enjoy an open relationship. And I agree that there has been too much hype but you blogged about it so you’re now part of the problem, and now so am I.

But lying and breaking promises is bad. One cannot retroactively declare polyamory. Tiger Woods lied, cheated, and broke vows. We can say we wish more people, including him, would consider making different promises and vows. But that does not make breaking them OK.

He also is alleged to have had unsafe sex with at least some of these women, and if so, his wife has every right to be extremely upset at this, if nothing else. As my wife would be if I had unsafe sex with someone we did not agree this was OK to do with, or vice versa.
