Default Fidelity and politics

David Badash argues that when people like Dan Savage say they are non-monogamous in their partnerships, it damages the case for marriage equality here. You can also read Dan Savage's response and Badash's response to Savage's response.

Any thoughts? This is an issue that comes up from time to time, the one I most vividly recall was a study where a number of same-sex couples said they were non-monogamous but didn't talk about it for fear of harming the cause.
