So I don’t know if you know this or not, but Miss Conception is a bit of a writer…. but this time around she wasn’t the one holding a pen or a mic… Instead, she was featured in an excellent article in Kansas City’s amazing periodical, The Pitch.
In the article titled Keep Them Coming: Polyamory in the Pandemic, Miss C gives her account of her stay in a nudist colony in the Bay area, during the dreaded pandemic lockdown.
Polyamory, like any style of dating, works for some and doesn’t for others—it’s a strong and healthy model for raising kids, running a family, and exploring your preferences. – Kirsten Thomas
So, just how did she deal with that nightmare? From what I can gather, better than most. But don’t take my word for it, give it a read. If you would like to check out the article here’s a link to it on The Pitch website.
Who knows maybe it will inspire you to give lots of love a chance. It’s probably a good idea, the world seems to be in short supply, and it could use just about all everyone has to spare.
While there’s increasing awareness around polyamory because of pop culture, it’s not often monogamous folks have exposure to couples in the lifestyle. – Kirsten Thomas
Keep Them Coming: Polyamory in the pandemic
When we love, we take risk, a risk that our heart will get hurt, or that we might lose some money, status, or worst of all even a friend. But nothing ventured, nothing gained…., I say.
“Poly culture has this rep as being hook-ups, but people don’t see the teamwork…” – Athens
Author of the article, Kristen Thomas, did a wonderful job illuminating an extremely valid alternative to the monogamous lifestyle that dominated relationships for so long.
