Bad idea. Those marriages are shortlived.

Open marriage? I think that is called dating.

right, b/c there's no such thing as an open marriage. That's the definition of a separation or a divorce.

No matter how "opened" the marriage was, there would still be jealousies and they not a marriage make..................

Yes, there's a new aids virus that will definately kill you very quickly. It has originated in China and is spreading fast. How about all the other sexual diseases?

We tend to oppose open marriage because of our cultural conditioning. I read a lot of SF/Fantasy and there are worlds "out there" where all kinds of relationships "work" that here on earth would be a baaad idea!

It's bad for the children. And if there are no children, and the couple wants an open marriage, then why did they get married ? That defeats the purpose of marriage.
