Não monogamias consensuais são formas de relacionamento em que um ou ambos
os membros do casal têm relações sexuais extra-díade com consentimento de ambos. Este
estudo examinou associações entre não monogamias consensuais, qualidade do
relacionamento amoroso, ciúme e funcionamento sexual. Participaram 390 indivíduos
heterossexuais (275 mulheres, 115 homens) com uma subamostra com relações sexuais
nas últimas quatro semanas (206 mulheres, 84 homens). Foram utilizados a versão
reduzida do Perceived Relationship Quality Component Inventory, a Escala
Multidimensional do Ciúme, a Escala de Não Monogamia Consensual, questões sobre
desejo e história passada e presente de não monogamias consensuais, o Índice de
Funcionamento Sexual Feminino e Índice Internacional de Função Eréctil. Verificou-se
que, nas mulheres, mas não nos homens, atitudes mais positivas relativamente às não
monogamias consensuais se correlacionaram com menor qualidade percebida da relação
amorosa. Atitudes mais positivas face às monogamias consensuais não se
correlacionaram nem com ciúme nem com funcionamento sexual, quer para homens, quer
para mulheres. Verificou-se que 17% dos homens fantasia em ter um relacionamento em
que a parceira tem relações sexuais com outros homens e 14% relata desejar um
relacionamento assim. Quanto às mulheres, 4% fantasia com relacionamentos em que o
parceiro tem relações sexuais com outras mulheres e 3% desejar um relacionamento
assim. Estas diferenças entre sexos são significativas. Contudo, as mulheres e os homens
não diferem na proporção em que referem já ter tido (4% de mulheres e 7% de homens)
ou ter atualmente relacionamentos com estas características (3% de mulheres e 4% de
homens).
Consensual non-monogamies refer to forms of relationship in which one or both members of the couple have extra-dyadic sexual relations with the consent of both. The present study examined associations between consensual non-monogamies, relationship quality, jealousy, and sexual functioning. A total of 390 heterosexual individuals participated (275 women, 115 men), with a sub-sample having had sexual intercourse in the last four weeks (206 women, 84 men). The short version of the Perceived Relationship Quality Component Inventory, the Multidimensional Jealousy Scale, the Consensual Nonmonogamy Scale, questions about desire and past and present history of consensual non-monogamy, the Female Sexual Functioning Index, and the International Index of Erectile Functioning, were used. It was found that in women, but not in men, more positive attitudes toward consensual non-monogamy correlated with lower perceived quality of the love relationship. More positive attitudes toward consensual monogamies did not correlate with either jealousy or sexual functioning for either men or women. It was found that 17% of men report fantasizing about having a relationship in which the female partner has sex with other men, and 14% report desiring such relationship. As for women, 4% report fantasizing about relationships in which their partner has sex with other women, and 3% report desiring such relationship. These gender differences are significant. However, women and men do not differ in the proportion in which they report having already had (4% of women and 7% of men) or currently having relationships with these characteristics (3% of women and 4% of men).
