The Ethical Slut: A Practical Guide to Polyamory, Open Relationships, and Other Freedoms in Sex and Love by Janet W. Hardy, Dossie Easton
3.0
I thought this book had some potential. It is a great starting place for the topic of poly and open relationships. It had a lot of feelings-based information though, and I didn’t gather that a lot of it was super up to date or scientific.
But, this book is a good reminder on how to be a decent human being to one another. It’s not necessarily pigeon held to open relationships, but just relationships in general. The book likes to repeatedly remind readers it’s all about respect, communication and love/passion that makes for great relationships. (Repeated almost to the point where one may think “alright already, we get it)
I want to see more literature on this topic. It was decent, but I think it lacked in areas. Also, this book needs to be more trans/BIPOC friendly. The latest edition has tried to be more inclusive, but it didn’t really talk much upon that community.
