So the idea of an ethical non-monogamous relationship has crossed my mind.
Ok, but don't go out and find a girlfriend, then tell her she's racist if she doesn't accept the new family structure, then bring the girlfriend into your home for your wife to bankroll the throuple. That seems bad.

Apparently all three of them live together in the house on Bainbridge Island that she inherited from her father. How convenient for the other two. Maybe that's why they haven't kicked her out of the "throuple".

Are these people on the spectrum? Wondering as there's a huge amount of neurodivergence in this scene.

That's just men betraying their wives to other women. Nothing less than that.

Early in the book she even says he was seeing one other woman polyamorously and then admitted later that she was lying earlier and knew it was two.
Pretty good scam for a twice-divorced layabout with kids of his own already to move in with a breadwinner and nkeep messing around.
Ugh!!! Everything about this man makes me want to throw up!
The only thing I can think of is that she’s using this book & this essay to really ruin his reputation and make him look like an irredeemable leech.
I hope she has a prenup.
Alternatively, she’s using the situation for attention and clicks. Seems to be working if this thread is an example . Can’t believe NPR even gave her a platform to perform.
