Polyamorous (eBook, ePUB)

Living and Loving More

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A look at how people are giving themselves a choice to love another way.

More people than ever are exploring the possibility of opening up their relationships - and not only that, they are fighting for their legal rights to love however and whomever they choose. In Polyamorous, reporter Jenny Yuen digs into how polyamory affects underrepresented communities, why these unions are becoming more normalized, and how relationships with multiple partners can be a practical alternative to monogamy and an intriguing expedition through uncharted emotional territory. Pairing off is no longer the default option for many. For some, polyamory is just a part of who they are.
