nominee Mo'Nique had no qualms about being in an open marriage.
On Sunday's Oscar Night edition of The Barbara Walters Special, the Precious star, 42, says that while she has "not had sex" outside her marriage to husband (and business manager) Sid Hicks, he is free to do so.
"Could Sid have sex outside of his marriage with me? Yes. That's not a deal-breaker," she says. "That's not something that would make us say, 'Pack your things and let's end the marriage.'"
And she says she wouldn't call it quits even if he had numerous flings.
"What if it's 20 times?" she asks. "So what? We've been best friends for over 25 years, and we truly know who we are. Oftentimes, people get into marriages and they don't know who they're laying next to. I'm very comfortable and secure with my husband."
So how does she keep her husband's interest?
"He loves the hairy legs,” she says, adding that she never shaves. "And if Sid likes the hairy legs, there you go ... I'm 42 and very hairy."
The one time she shaved her legs, "it was so uncomfortable and painful," she recalls. "I said, 'Never again would I do that to myself.'"

Now my opinion:
I saw an interview in which Mo’Nique talked about being in an open marriage. She says her husband having sex outside the marriage is “No deal breaker”. http://beyondjane.com/family/marriage/open-marriage-or-swinging-would-you-accept-it/
Is this what most people think? Is that why, at 48, I meet many that are willing or into “Alternative lifestyles, Open Marriages and/ or Swinging? Funny thing though they say it is ok and they still love one another they still HIDE affairs. That tells me someone isn’t happy.
I am still old fashioned. I want ONE man that wants and needs only ONE woman in his life. I would not be comfortable or happy knowing he is out there having sex with another woman, doing the same things to her that he does to me. I want to be special. I want to feel special.
I have heard the phrase “Unconditional Love”. Someone once told me that if your love is unconditional you would continue to love your partner regardless of affairs of the heart and body. I think that phrase is being misunderstood. If someone disrespects our relationship I am out. I love to be free and expressive with my partner and that can’t be done if I don’t know where his mouth has been. I won’t feel special If I know he has held another woman in his arms and made ”love” or “had sex” with another.
Has the world really come to this where a person feels the need to accept this BS in order to be in a relationship? I would think someone’s self esteem is low as hell if they accept their partner going outside the relationship to be fulfilled sexually, mental or emotionally.
Mo’Nique is a successful black woman. I know many that are overweight so they succumb to their partners desires, wants and needs even though it may not make them truly happy. Just for the sake of being in a relationship. I remember Star Jones went through that same thing.
I listen to people talk about it and the one thing they ALL have in common is never has one said there were happy. They accept, submit and participate, but not once mention true happiness. As I listened to her interview she never said she was happy. It may have taken alittle longer but she would have found a man that wanted, desired and respected ONY her sexually
Call me old fashioned but the one I will be with I will love his stinky drawers, I will love his bad breathe in the morning and love him before he shaves in the morning. I will wake up to him next to me and KNOW he respects and loves me and our relationship. I would be able to smile inside and out for I have a god man. And he will smile because he knows he has a good woman.
Call me selfish, Call me greedy….But my man will be mine. My man will know I am his.
