💡3 questions to ask yourself about your love connections:
1. Does this relationship make my world smaller or bigger?
2. What parts of me do I hide to make the other person feel comfortable?
3. What parts of me are freed, revealed, or emboldened in this relationship?

My most recent blog on Psychology Today is the first in a series that details some of the history of consensual nonmonogamies in the United States. This one begins in the 19th century and looks at the influence of anarchy, feminism…lnkd.in/eaJB3Wnj lnkd.in/eXYpdE4D

Monogamyths to stay away from:
"I must wait to meet 'the one' who I will be compatible with, in every way"
Heck, most days I am not even fully compatible with myself! Is it really possible for another person who has a whole different history to tick every compatibility box?

"Challenging compulsory monogamy is important politically & in terms of building more conscious relationships - but we don't have to pit different relationship styles against each other."

Being HIV positive and treated like garbage by society and dying alone without your loved ones is different than not being able to go to Boston Pizza
