145. Is It Polyamory Or Just Being Selfish‪?‬ But Where Are You Really From?: An Asian-American Struggle

    • Society & Culture

Are polyamory and open relationships becoming popular in modern society?!



...or is the media just presenting it that way and enabling problematic people to co-opt the concept of polyamory to justify their bad behaviors (i.e., cheating, using people, etc.)?



Inspired by a recent read of the New Yorker article entitled "How Did Polyamory Become So Popular?" by Jennifer Wilson, we discuss what we think about all of this.



How about you, listeners? Have you noticed a rise in polyamorous relationships within your social circles, or seen people use polyamory as an excuse to act on selfish desires? Let us know in the Spotify Q&A section or in our comments on social media!
