One of my sisters once told me she was proud of me for being out with my bisexuality.

When asked, she said it was because I am liberal, and often refer to the people I date as partners. Then I had to explain to her what nonmonogamy was, and I’m not sure if that was more or less acceptable to her.

Probably not..?

But also, even hetero monogamous people can call the people they're dating partners.... I don't see her logic there.

Ive used partner as well, but yeah it does seem to confuse people.
