GEN X: THE REAL POLY GENERATION
Turns out the “sexually liberated” kids aren’t the ones rewriting the rulebook - their parents are.
A new study from Sister Wives (yes, that’s a real dating site) shows Gen X and Millennials are nearly seven times more into polyamory than Gen Z.
The platform’s data doesn’t lie: millennials (35–44) dominate at 38% of users, Gen X trails at 20%, and Gen Z? Barely 5% - just above retirees.
The “experimenting generation” apparently prefers monogamy and memes.
Experts say it’s not prudishness - it’s inexperience. Gen Z’s still busy surviving first heartbreaks, not scheduling group therapy with three partners.
As Kinsey researcher Justin Lehmiller puts it: the stereotype doesn’t match the data.
Meanwhile, older daters - battle-tested by divorce, burnout, and a few too many situationships - are exploring “ethical non-monogamy” like it’s the new yoga retreat.
Polyamory isn’t rebellion anymore; it’s reinvention.
Even the gender gap’s closing: Gen Z women nearly match men in interest (26% vs 27%), while Boomer women practically ghost the category at 10%.
As Gen Z ages into real emotional bandwidth - and real rent prices - expect their ideals to bend.
Not toward “free love,” but toward customized love: bespoke arrangements for people allergic to permanence.
Monogamy isn’t dead. It’s just being quietly out-innovated by midlife crisis energy.

🚨🇺🇸 STUDY: GEN Z IS DROPPING NON-BINARY LABELS
From 6.8% to under 4% - that's the dramatic decline in non-binary identification among young Americans according to new research.
Professor Eric Kaufman's study captures what some are calling a generational course correction.
THE SHIFT: Many conservatives long argued that the spike in alternative gender identities stemmed from "radical leftist brainwashing" rather than authentic self-discovery.
With "common sense" becoming the rallying cry across conservative media and gaining mainstream traction, these numbers suggest their message is resonating.
Kaufman attributes the change to improved mental health metrics, implying some identity exploration may have been anxiety-driven rather than inherent.
The rapid rise and fall - from cultural phenomenon to statistical decline in just two years - supports those who viewed it as social contagion rather than biological reality.
The data tells a story: After years of expanding gender categories, young Americans are reverting to traditional male/female identification.
Whether you see this as society returning to sanity or social pressure depends on your worldview.
But the numbers don't lie. Peak non-binary appears to be over.
