In the hypothetical scenario where people say things like, oh, non-monogamy doesn't work,

all the studies show that I would love to show them this because I think that it's really interesting to have all of these very nuanced reasons as opposed to just thinking, oh, it's because somebody wants to sleep with whomever they want.

And I love that.

I think, yeah, it kind of also brings perhaps a humanity to it

task that we've been wanting to cover for a long time. Today is going to be the

first of a two-part episode where we're going to go through a roundup of some of the most recent research studies that have been done about non-monogamy.

consensual non-monogamy has grown hugely and the way that they're writing

about it is very different. It used to be, no one's researching this, so I'm doing this study.

And now it's, this is becoming a more and more common thing for people to research.

So I want to add to the research in this way, which is really exciting.

And today there's just way more information, way more academic papers being written about
