Since joining Ok Cupid in the past week I've had a few inquiries from women whose profiles mention they are "mostly monogamous".

it's either you are or you are not monogamous, there is no "mostly" I guess you could just ask them.

Do they write that spontaneously... or is it a box they click on indicating their relationship style?

 

I am not familiar with Ok Cupid.

I'd guess it means that when they're in a committed relationship they're monogamous, and when they're casually dating they're not.

You have the option of putting strictly monogamous, mostly monogamous, or non monogamous.

That's what I suspected.

 

I am thinking they put *mostly* instead of *strictly* to indicate, until they become exclusive with a guy, they're free to meet/have sex with others (as is the guy) ....but once they become exclusive, they are 100% monogomous.

That's what I took it to mean and that's what I have on my profile.

They're monogamous with the person they choose to be. The rest are just a booty call.

I'd read that as;

 

"Ideally I'd like to be in a monogamous relationship, but I have had the occasional "one night stand" here and there"

I haven't the foggiest idea but when I see a man with that I'm automatically suspicious.

that's sooooo funny, first time I hear about this "mostly monogamous". Makes me think of "a little bit pregnant", hahaha
