Thank you to everyone who responded to my call for sources for the sex and marriage piece! I’m still looking to speak with more women and couples (and working on getting back to everyone who responded)— especially looking to talk to couples with diverse racial, ethnic, and economic backgrounds. Feel free to reply to this if you get it in your inbox, or DM me on Instagram.

I spent this week starting up two classes, talking with sources, researching and writing. Writing Club has been a blast, you should really join us. This week we’re talking about what even is structure.

Meanwhile, questions about pleasure and desire are everywhere right now. I’m here for it. We’ve got polycules, polyamory guides, and how to come out to your kids about NOT being polyamorous. Tell me all of your feelings about what’s happening here.
