The consensual-non-monogamy / sex-positive canon — The Ethical Slut, Sex at Dawn, Polysecure. The wish is freedom from the constraints of compulsory monogamy, with abundance instead of scarcity in love. The counterfeit at the legitimation pole uses non-falsifiable evopsych to argue monogamy is biologically unnatural; the partial-refusal pole names within-community vocabulary-weaponization explicitly — where the framework's own terms get used to mask abusive behavior.
Anchor works
Easton+Liszt Ethical Slut (2011 2nd ed — foundational); Ryan+Jethá Sex at Dawn (2010 — pure-counterfeit pole at order/legibility leg via non-falsifiable speculative evopsych totalizing-frame); Fern Polysecure (2020 — partial-refusal pole canonical, attachment-theory grounded); Fern+Cooley Polywise (2023 — partial-refusal continuation; names within-community vocabulary-weaponization inside the text — counterfeit-operator-location rule third independent confirmation). Within-community counterfeit-pole position named (Veaux+Rickert More Than Two 2014 — excluded on values-aligned grounds given Veaux's documented abuse history) — partial-refusal-coded language masking exploitative practice. Counterfeit-operator-location rule fires at Fern + Cooley partial-refusal pole.
