A recent study surveys 5,511 adult cisgender sexual minority men to examine beliefs regarding sexual agreements. Findings reveal that 26% of men in non-monogamous agreements suspected their main partners had condomless sex with others, in stark contrast to only 3% among monogamous individuals. This belief was correlated with an increase in condomless sex among respondents. The study highlights how perceptions of partner behavior can impact relationship dynamics and trust, underscoring the importance of clear communication about sexual boundaries to navigate potential misunderstandings and maintain relationship quality.
