In a disturbing piece published in NY Mag, Michael Sonmore said that he's okay with his wife having sex with random men because he's a feminist.
The article is titled, "What Open Marriage Taught One Man About Feminism" and details Sonmore's "open" relationship with his wife.
It begins with this paragraph (emphasis mine): "As I write this, my children are asleep in their room, Loretta Lynn is on the stereo, and my wife is out on a date with a man named Paulo. Its her second date this week; her fourth this month so far. If it goes like the others, shell come home in the middle of the night, crawl into bed beside me, and tell me all about how she and Paulo had sex. I wont explode with anger or seethe with resentment. Ill tell her its a hot story and Im glad she had fun. Its hot because shes excited, and Im glad because Im a feminist."
Sonmore then writes about a realization he had: "It wasnt until my wife mentioned one evening that shed kissed another man and liked it and wanted to do more than kiss next time that I realized how my status as a Man depended on a single fact: that my wife [expletive] only me."
According to Sonmore, he realized not letting his wife sleep with other men was part of the Patriarchy: "She didnt present it as an issue of feminism to me, but after much soul-searching about why the idea of my wife having sex with other men bothered me I came to a few conclusions: Monogamy meant I controlled her sexual expression, and, not to get all womens-studies major about it, patriarchal oppression essentially boils down to a mans fear that a woman with sexual agency is a woman he cant control."
He continues, "We are afraid that when it comes time for sex, they wont choose us. This petty fear has led us as a culture to place judgments on the entire spectrum of female sexual expression: If a woman likes sex, shes a whore and a slut; if she only likes sex with her husband or boyfriend, shes boring and lame; if she doesnt like sex at all, shes frigid and unfeeling. Every option is a trap."
Sickeningly, Sonmore writes, "The point is that it should be women who choose, not men even the men theyre married to. For my wife, the choice between honoring our vows and fulfilling her desires was a false choice, another trap."
Then he explains when he became a feminist: "When my wife told me she wanted to open our marriage and take other lovers, she wasnt rejecting me, she was embracing herself. When I understood that, I finally became a feminist."
Yep. You nailed it. What kind of neutered beta male would gush at hearing their wife’s tales of sex with other men. Maybe he should serve drinks to his wife’s lover in case he gets hot during the act. Liberals really are diseased.
This is called “cuckolding”
After sex who does this moron think the wife and the other guy are laughing at?
It means you're not cutting it, dude. Perhaps your pussification has something to do with it.
Wife’s a whore, he’s a wuss. Perfect definition of liberals.
Exactly.
He's got a very small duck, and he's not good at using it.
They’ll both wind up leaving each other for other men.
Yet another example of what it means to be given over to a reprobate mind.
The size of what he’s got isn’t nearly the turnoff that his weak and pathetic mindset is. There are other things besides a penis but there is nothing if there’s no respect. What a doormat.
I’m a materialist. That is why I can steal cars, because it’s not ok to hold back on any selfish urge I might have. People clinging to property owning are not expressing their true animal instincts to collect. I am BIGGER than that. I’m more evolved than those of you who pay attention to rules.
It does have that same ring of truth to it, doesn't it?
I tried to find a pic or a bio on this numbnuts....and found nothing but this piece.
Call me skeptical.
Mammas in the graveyard and Pappas in the pen!
Yep this guy is a sissy boy through and through. Pathetic. When does the sex change come?
He’s a feminist?
Sounds more like he is a cuck.
Something about staying for too long in NY City, especially the “progressive” parts like Manhattan - really screws with your brain.
Just another approach to the undermining of marriage.
As a fellow stay at home dad. I want to make this as clear as possible about this guy. He is a cuckold & his wife is a wore.
Straight up dude. You should be ashamed of her and yourself.
I hope so.
There are three options here:
Yep. Exactly what I was thinking and in the same order too. She’s also going to dump him.
Yep, that's about it.
It's the only kind of man who would call himself a "feminist"...and the kind no real woman would ever consider.
