    Oct 6 2024

    This podcast focuses on a passage from a book on open relationships and nonmonogamy. It argues that the traditional view of infidelity, particularly "affairs," as inherently immoral or shameful is outdated and harmful. The author challenges societal views by suggesting that affairs can be a form of exploration and self-discovery, potentially even improving primary relationships when navigated mindfully. They criticize the hypocrisy of a society that condemns infidelity while simultaneously profiting from it through entertainment and media, advocating for greater acceptance and understanding of personal choices that can still hold integrity.
