About Ethical Non-Monogamy
The editorial team
Articles credited to the editorial team are collaboratively researched, written, and reviewed by multiple contributors before publication. Here's how that works, and what we hold ourselves to.
How we work
Most of what you read here is the work of more than one person. A piece starts from primary sources — peer-reviewed research, the established books in the field, and reputable community organizations — and is drafted, fact-checked, and edited by contributors before it goes live. Every article names its sources so you can check the claims yourself.
We take responsibility for what we publish as a collective rather than hiding behind “uncredited.” When a piece carries specialist weight — legal or clinical, for instance — we note where a reviewer with relevant expertise has gone over it.
What we hold to
Clarity over titillation. Honesty about trade-offs rather than cheerleading. LGBTQ+ inclusivity from the ground up. And a firm line between what the evidence supports and what is one community's opinion — we try always to tell you which is which.
The fuller version of those commitments lives in our editorial standards. If you ever find something inaccurate, our contact page is the way to tell us.
Sourcing
We cite peer-reviewed research where it exists, attribute aggregate figures to the organizations that compiled them, and link the canonical source on every claim that needs one. Our running statistics page lives at /statistics, and the organizations we rely on and recommend are listed under resources.
