Im curious what non ethical monogamy looks like.

You both know the other one cheated on you so you cheat on them to get back at them and then they cheat on you in revenge.

Me too, maybe like an abusive relationship?

I had a mother in law who stayed with her abusive husband because he threatened to kill her and their children if she tried to leave. Seems pretty unethical to me.

A less extreme example would be one partner badgering or manipulating the other into being monogamous when they don't want to be.
