Emily Exton at vh1.com tells us what is coming up tomorrow on
I’m Married To A…
Live-in couple Ali and Lorne use
their home of San Francisco as a playground for “second base parties,”
which is likely not something you took part in back in your Little
League days. “I just have an insatiable appetite for sex,” Ali explains.
“So I like to date like three guys at a time because then no one person
is exhausted.” And everyone is okay with that?
It's not for everyone, but it is for some.
On the season finale of I’m Married To A…,
we meet a polyamorous couple, who explain how they step outside their
relationship to meet their physical needs, ultimately allowing
themselves to fall in love with multiple people to capitalize on the
“abundance” of emotion they have to spare. To practice this lifestyle,
honesty is the best policy, and making sure you define certain feelings
and specific “bases” in the same way is extremely important.
Television producers like to focus on the sex, but for most people in a polyamorous or an open relationship (and no, those are not synonyms) there's a lot more to it than having sex with other people. Sometimes, it is a matter of personalities or shared interests.It is good to see a series showing that not all marriages or relationships have to look the same.

To prevent spam, comments will have to be approved, so your comment may not appear for several hours. Feedback is welcome, including disagreement. I only delete/reject/mark as spam: spam, vulgar or hateful attacks, repeated spouting of bigotry from the same person that does not add to the discussion, and the like. I will not reject comments based on disagreement, but if you don't think consenting adults should be free to love each other, then I do not consent to have you repeatedly spout hate on my blog without adding anything to the discourse.
If you want to write to me privately, then either contact me on Facebook, email me at fullmarriageequality at protonmail dot com, or tell me in your comment that you do NOT want it published. Otherwise, anything you write here is fair game to be used in a subsequent entry. If you want to be anonymous, that is fine.
IT IS OK TO TALK ABOUT SEX IN YOUR COMMENTS, BUT PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY AS I WANT THIS BLOG TO BE AS "SAFE FOR WORK" AS POSSIBLE. If your comment includes graphic descriptions of activity involving minors, it's not going to get published.
