Chosen Monogamy - with Ali and T

A culture of “compulsory monogamy” teaches us that there is only one desirable and appropriate way to form romantic relationships. Ethical non-monogamy opens a much broader range of possible relationship structures, including swinging and polyamory. In some cases, even after learning about and trying out different relationship structures, people still conclude that monogamy is right for them. In this episode, Ali and T describe their experience with “chosen monogamy”, a relationship style in which they decided, despite knowledge of and past experiences with non-monogamy, to be sexually exclusive. Neither monogamy nor non-monogamy are right for everyone. As Ali and T discovered, empowerment is less about any one relationship structure over another and more about the ability to make a conscious, personal choice.@Vanessacliff2
