Summary

Can Dan convince a young woman to accept and forgive her father for having a 9-year-long affair with a married woman?  Listen in as Dan deftly navigates through the kind of  theoretical quandary that only a conservative silly person could present.  Dan interviews Laura Anderson about her Slate article covering the history of condoms and why they could be so much better.  On the Magnum, fall down the poly rabbit hole with us, won't you? Dan chats with poly activist and lawyer Diana Adams about the rise of polyamory in our cultural awareness, and how to live the poly lifestyle, while maintaining your precious sanity. Also, don't you want to learn about "Poly Cocktails"? 206-201-2720 Today's Lovecast is brought to you by MeUndies.com: High quality, super-comfortable, good looking undies.

If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,

while there's nothing you can't ask on Savage Lovecast.

Every week at the end of the show, we give out the phone number 206, 201, 2720, and we invite you to call in not just with questions, but also with comments and feedback.

0:33.7

And we welcome your comments and feedback. You can also leave comments at savage lovecast.com

0:38.5

where there's a comment thread on every single show. So it's when you got to get off your chest. You can do it there. But some people do email me directly rather than calling or leaving a comment on the show at the website. And I'm going to share one. I usually don't share the emails. But I read them. I read them all and I pick your comment seriously, but I just wanted to share this one.

Dear Dan, I can't say how much I one. I usually don't share the emails, but I read them. I read them all and I pick your comment

seriously, but I just wanted to share this one. Dear Dan, I can't say how much I enjoy your sex

advice. Listening to your podcast with my wife has been a game changer. You are awesome at sex advice,

1:05.0

but I don't give a fat flying fuck about what you think about politics or abortion. If you wish to keep giving great

1:12.5

sex advice to people who identify as to the left of Dan Savage, and that's most of us because

1:16.7

you are one lefty bastard, shut up and give sex advice. Bill. So let me just say to Bill and

heard this shit before.

1:27.8

It's going to be a long 18 months for you people because we're heading into a presidential election, and I am going to talk about abortion and politics and shit, particularly where it intersects with my portfolio.

1:41.7

Sex, sex and relationships and gender and reproductive freedom and marriage.

1:48.4

All these things are politicized in our country. I will leave politics alone and politicians

1:54.5

alone just as soon as they start leaving sex alone. But politicians don't leave sex alone.

1:59.6

And it would be negligence on my part if I didn't

2:02.5

address politics when politicians are all out there addressing sex. So you have an option. If you

2:09.6

don't want to listen to me, rant and rave a little bit about politics, skip the top of the show
