Why is everyone, including Whoopi Goldberg, talking about polyamory?

Whoopi Goldberg's recent mention of her past polyamorous experience on "The View" sparked conversations on the relationship style, emphasizing its feasibility for those who can multitask. This discussion was prompted by The Cut's viral guide to polyamory, reflecting the increasing openness about non-monogamous relationships in mainstream media. Black pop culture, from TV shows like “Insecure” to celebrities like Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith, Nick Cannon, and Kehlani, contributes to this shift. The YouGov survey indicates a changing attitude, with about one-third of Americans describing their ideal relationship as not strictly monogamous, highlighting a positive shift in public perception towards diverse relationship styles.
