New ‘Openminded’ dating app targets ‘repressed old fashioned’ monogamy
A new dating app called OpenMinded is targeting people seeking non-monogamous, open relationships, billing themselves as an anti-cheating alternative for members who are “liberated from the confines of conventional, old-fashioned, repressed ways of loving.” Check out one popular site with this Kismia dating site review.
With over 70,000 users since it launched last month. The app’s claim is that they are appealing to the growing number of people interested in “unconventional relationship configurations.”
OpenMinded founder, Brandon Wade, launched the app in the midst of what he calls a shift in societal ideals: “Society has come to a point where marriage has taken a downward turn because it no longer satisfies the needs of the modern woman or man.”
Sheffield points to a Gallup survey released last week that found only 8 percent of Americans view married men or women having an affair as morally acceptable. That number increased just 1 percent from 2001 to 2015, while acceptance for other moral issues, like homosexual relationships and having a baby outside marriage, jumped 23 percent and 15 percent respectively during the same time period.“If you look at marriage, it developed as a survival strategy and a means of raising kids,” Wade told the Post. “But relationships are no longer a necessary component of life. People have careers and other interests—they can survive without them.”
