Part 2: The Parental Unit

  • Summary

  • We continue the conversation with my parents! We dive further into the book Sex at Dawn, finish chatting about how my parents felt as they watched Mike and I navigate our new relationship style, and philosophize (my new favorite word) even more!

    Specific topics include:

    • Are we monogamous by nature? Or have we chosen monogamy because of societal programming?
    • Are we “going against our nature” by being monogamous?
    • My parent’s thoughts and reactions when I first started dating other people.
    • Mike’s dating life, or lack there of, and how we don’t “keep score” when it comes to dating and meeting new partners. Mike is going at his own pace.
    • Could sexual relationships with multiple partners lead to resentment in relationships?
    • Is it hard to meet other people who are polyamorous on dating apps or out in social situations?
    • Our thoughts on polyamory becoming more popular in the future and why.
    • Most people who are dating are practicing non-monogamy.
    • Would my parents consider polyamory if they were 20 again? Now that they know what they know?
    • There aren’t many examples of non-monogamy that are widely seen that are portrayed in a positive light. We need more representation in this area.
    • Will Mike and I always be non-monogamous?
