Speaker 1 (00:00):
Time now to check Steve's voicemail. If you want to
leave Steve a message, call him eight seven seven twenty
nine Steve.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
All right, So Steve.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Recently we talked about the new dating term on the
dating apps called ethical non monogamy. You guys remember that
from the other day. It's a practice of having a
closer sexual relationship where both parties consent to the infidelity.
In other words, I'll tell you that I'm married and
you agree to sleep with me anyway, Swinging, open relationships,

(00:27):
all that polyamory all fall under the umbrella of ethical
non monogamy. So we have a caller that left a
message about our discussion on the subject. Take a listen.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
So y'all are talking about ethical non monogamy and call
them at cheating. And I'm gonna let y'all know right now,
you're very much knowing your ag just in times off.
If you don't want to do it, then don't but
call us on machineting and changing the terms, because again,
what is monogamy monogamy? Saying with one partnership ethible nomenogamy

(01:04):
you're saying that you don't want now, is it something
that I want to do? So I get jealous.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
I don't feel like sharing.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Is it something that I almost sit here in clowns
because I don't want to do it. No, I understand
that it's just not for me. Y'all are very much
showing your age and insisting that something is cheating when
you are open with your partner and discussing the fact
that neither of you want to just be with one
person is not cheating. Not the first time I've saw

(01:32):
something that I don't understand, probably not gonna be the
last time. But again, being ethically non monogamous means you're
quite literally let your partner know that we're not the
only people together. You both know that you both have
that agreement and it works for them. If it works
for them and it doesn't work for you, leave it alone.
Simple that don't go call on something cheating cheating. This

(01:54):
is not cheating.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Cheating is lying.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Cheating involves line. If it does not involve lighting line,
it's not you.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
I appreciate you calling in and telling us we're showing
our age because well we have the age to show.
Your just showing yours because you don't listen. The lady
that wrote the letter and called in did not say
they partner knew about it. They said that's what they
were practicing. There are sites on where married people are

(02:24):
on there putting it out there for the other person
to partake in them and letting them know that they're
married and their partner knows nothing about it.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's what the phone call was about.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
So when you call here talking about somebody showing they age,
make sure you ain't showing yours too. So learn to listen,
because that's what it takes when you come after me,
y'all showing y'all age. Now, look, if y'all swingers, we
know what swingers is. We was doing when this was
around for your young was born. Have you got another

(02:57):
couple of y'all going out to the club now and
you want to swing?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
We know what that is. That ain't what the call
was talking about. But you didn't listen to that.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
You heard the part you wanted, and now you want
to call it and be critical because we old. Old is
the goal and maybe one day you have to get
older and have some this too. Sitting up in here
and I be listening to this stuff and I'm sorry, ladies,
but you're on the back end of my work. Week
because I work with young people. That family few say

(03:28):
stupid sugar hundred ice teeth all.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
At day long.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
And I got to sit there because HR just round
the corner, and I got to act like I'm okay with.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
That what I ain't.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
And you done walked up into the hornet's nest while
the hornet was sitting outside reading the paper bus stinging your.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
All.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
Right, I can tie to young people because we old,
we scooping and we don't know how to look at stuff.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Y'all keep y'all can come up with all these new titles.
You won't do. It's called cheat hell it is, man.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yeah, it's an agreement between the people who are going
to be cheating with the or seeing each other. They
didn't say anything about the their telling their partners or
anything like that.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
That's that's even what they call was hit that though
you all want to light us up because her dumb
is some relationship and some man that told her he's
seeing somebody else.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
No, don't try to be okay with what you call.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
He's just uninformed. Coming up next, the nephew with the
frank phone call for today. Right after this, you're listening
to the Steve Harvey Morning Show,
