Listen now | We explore the nuanced topic of consent violations within non-monogamous relationships. From the ethics of sharing intimate photos to the complexities of informed consent in the context of infidelity, this conversation invites Evolving Lovers to consider how trust, transparency, and communication are foundational to ethical non-monogamy.
Another really interesting listen! While there are times and places for the occasional libations, I think in interacting and feeling out a person, social inhibitions will naturally relax if you are feeling it - the body has a great way of protecting itself and perhaps if you're not comfortable in the moment, that's your animal instinct, a sign to continue conversing and assessing.
On the topic of informed consent, my non-legal opinion would be that while highly immoral, probably not illegal at present (unless there is the knowing transmission of disease). But having these public domain discussions are how we as a society debate and inform how laws should be shaped, so good on you Abbey for sharing! Would making cheating illegal really change behaviour? I don't know - there are many activities which are illegal and immoral that people still willingly undertake. Hopefully as a society we can just continue to evolve and have these open conversations with each other, something I think this podcast can do a great deal of good in encouraging 😊
