What Timing! Katie Hill Gets Into Trouble for Her "Throuple" Lifestyle and CBS Is Right There to Promote "Triad" Relationships and Claim They're "Families"

Remember when Clinton lied and then we had months of "Everyone Lies" pieces?

Well, here's CBS with a Everybody Has a Triad Monogamous Relationship piece.

This was actually published over the weekend -- before Hill resigned.

"One big orgy." That's the stereotype about the lifestyle of consensual non-monogamy — an arrangement where committed partners openly agree to have sexual relationships with other people.

But people who have practiced non-monogamy for years say it's not all wild sex -- or even all that wild. It takes a lot of work, and it carries a lot of stigma. There can be serious consequences for the family life and even careers of those involved.

"Many people are trying to create families in different kinds of ways. And a lot of people see that as dangerous," Diana Adams, a Brooklyn-based lawyer who represents polyamorous families, says in the CBSN Originals documentary, "Non-monogamy."

She advises clients in non-monogamous relationships to be careful about telling their employers. She's seen some lose their jobs over it.

Oh really?, writes a "KatieH." from California.

Now they kind of casually boost polygamy, while also saying polyamory isn't illegal.

...

It is illegal in all 50 states to be married to more than one person -- which is known as polygamy, not polyamory. Polyamorous people who try different kinds of arrangements --such as a married couple with steady outside partners-- run into their own legal problems.

There is no legal framework for polyamorous families to share finances, custody of children or the rights and responsibilities that come with marriage. Likewise, there are no legal protections against people facing discrimination for being in a non-monogamous relationship.

Mahdy, a man who lives in Brooklyn, New York, had to end his marriage to keep his relationship together. He is part of what's called a triad or thruple-- a polyamorous relationship between three people who are all actively involved with each other. But because it's illegal to be married to more than one person, only two people in his triad can be married.

There's a video to go with this.

Weird that when Trump was accused of having sex with Stormy Daniels, there were no Context Pieces explaining the Science of why men like very, very easy women with big fat sloppy t*ts.

I mean.... if we're defending everyone's sexual preferences, why not defend this pretty common one?

The answers are, Because Trump and Because Straight Men are Icky!!!
