Relationship Anarchy: The Feminist Case For Radical Connection
The Feminist Case For Radical Connection
•
1h 23m
CLASS DESCRIPTION
What does it mean to be in a committed relationship? Why is romantic love perceived as a limited resource that you can only give to one person? Why are marriage and children typically reserved for romantic connections, and does it have to be this way? How can you customise your relationships with everyone around you and live a life that is tailored to your true and authentic desires? Polyamory educator Leanne Yau will explore these questions and more in this talk on relationship anarchy, and how this political philosophy when applied to human relationships has the potential to deeply enrich people's lives, no matter what relationship style you are in.
