Tinder’s new relationship-type options include monogamy, ethical non-monogamy, open relationship, polyamory, and “open to exploring,” in response to growing interest in less traditional dating approaches. According to a study of 4,000 18-to-25-year-olds, 41% are open to or seeking non-monogamous relationships. The most popular options are open relationships (36%), followed by hierarchical polyamory (26%). Perhaps more importantly, a survey found that 73% of young singles of any gender want someone who is clear about what they want. Most people do not want to waste time with partners who have opposing goals.
