Sexual pluralism refers to the acceptance and celebration of diverse sexual orientations, behaviors, and lifestyles. This couple's open-mindedness towards sex and their respect for the importance of consent and equality aligns with the principles of sexual pluralism. Sexual opportunism implies using sex for personal gain, sexual liberalism suggests a more general acceptance of sexual behavior, and sexual exhibitionism implies a desire to showcase sexual activity publicly, none of which necessarily align with the couple's philosophy.
