It is time to explore some relationship style options and get to hear the ins and outs (oh you know that pun was fully intended) of being ethically non-monogamous. I'm so grateful to have had Tamara Pincus, Clinical Social Worker, to help walks us through some of the finer points of this subject. She not only works with kinky folks who may be exploring different relationship styles, she is also a practicing non-monoger herself. Hope you are as delighted with her wisdom, candor, and wonderful humor as I was. Links to her center and the books she mentioned below!

Welcome to the first episode of Kinksplain NOT Kink Shame, my bonus episodes. Like Dr. Seuss...but about kinks. Ah really it's like it just because A is for Aquaphilia, B is for Breeding, and C is for Cuckolding. These are the 3 kinks we explore in this first episode.



As usual, if you have any questions, or if you think of a kink you would like me to cover, feel free to shoot me a message at theintimacyally@gmail.com or fill out a contact form at www.theintimacyally.com



As mentioned, here's the story quoting Dr. Lee Phillips:

Dr. Justin Lehmiller has an amazing podcast called Sex & Psychology you should check out. You can find his book, Tell Me What You Want, here:

And last, but certainly not least, here is the link to Dr. David Ley's book, Insatiable Wives: Women Who Stray and the Men Who Love Them:

If you've been listening at all, you know I love me some Dr. Ley and the Sexual Health Alliance for introducing me to many of my sexuality heroes and letting me know that learning and teaching about kink is not only acceptable, but necessary. Check them out at:

Apologies Abound. First for being MIA. Second for the s****y sound. Not really sure what went wrong here, but it is better after 3 and a half minutes. Some great nuggets here about how magic and weilding it has played a part in my growth and good fortune in finding a partner over the last couple years. I go into detail about my marriage ending, my moon ritual and how I manifested Zach. Results will absolutely vary, but I wanted to share what helped guide me to manifest my man.



Also, there's an announcement about Kinksplain not Kinkshame episodes starting this weekend. I'd better head down to the hovel and figure out wtf is wrong with my mic!



As usual, I'm open for questions. Submit a contact form or sign up for updates at www.theintimacyally.com or you can follow me @theintimacyally on IG for all the fun.

Soooo, why do dudes hate boundaries? Well, we're gonna talk a lil about that but we're also gonna discuss why we're not so great at upholding them. Then I'm gonna give ya a few tips on how to strengthen them. Sound good? Cool.

Say Fuck No to the Status Quo!
