I'm Down with NDP.

The article introduces a new term for describing a gay relationship that does not involve marriage or domestic partnership. The term "nondomesticated partner" (NDP) is suggested to be appropriate or applicable for gay people who are into a special relationship with someone whom they do not have interest in mimicking heterosexual marriage with. The author believes that NDP should be adopted so as not to leave out many gay men being forced to conform to the supposed standards of heterosexuality.
