I've consistently and clearly supported that position. No LBS should feel compelled to cover for - or lie for their cheating spouse. (That's not exposure in my book, and it's not what MWD refers to or means when she uses the term.)

By exposure I mean telling others that your spouse is having an affair.

That's how I'm using the term as well. I try not to make a distinction between lies of commission and lies of omission, and I certainly base my definition on the widely accepted use of the word in infidelity research.

But I don't advocate it; I just didn't want to see it misrepresented because it's a serious method well within the mainstream, that's all.
