Polyamorous and Asian with @polyamorouswhileasian Happy Polydays

Michelle Hy's polyamory advocacy work (@polyamorouswhileasian) on the political intersection between relationships and race, sex positivity, and body neutrality is well known to many. In this episode we discuss:

- Michelle's very sudden introduction to polyamory at 18 years old

- Misconceptions in mainstream polyamorous narratives

- Handling boundaries and expectations with Asian parents

- Why my mother is less accepting of my bisexuality than my cousin's lesbianism

- Handling fetishisation of Asianness in dating, and where we draw the line between attraction and exoticisation

and much more.
