The Ethical Slut Third Edition
A Practical Guide to Polyamory Open Relationships and Other Freedoms in Sex and Love (Revised)

By Janet W. Hardy Dossie Easton

Paperback; 320 pages

The classic guide to love sex and intimacy beyond the limits of conventional monogamy has been fully updated to reflect today's modern attitudes and the latest information on nontraditional relationships.

"One of the most useful relationship books you could ever read no matter what your lifestyle choices. It's chock-full of great information about communication jealousy asking for what you want and maintaining a relationship with integrity."
–Annie Sprinkle PhD sexologist and author of Dr. Sprinkle's Spectacular Sex

For 20 years The Ethical Slut–widely known as the "Poly Bible"–has dispelled myths and showed curious readers how to maintain a successful polyamorous lifestyle through open communication emotional honesty and safer sex practices. The third edition of this timeless guide to the ethics of relationships communication and sex has been revised to include:

Interviews with poly millennials (young people who have grown up without the prejudices their elders encountered regarding gender orientation sexuality and relationships)
Tributes to polyamory pioneers
Tools for conflict resolution and instructions on how to improve interpersonal dynamics
New sidebars on topics such as asexuality sex workers LGBTQ terminology and ways polys can connect and thrive

The authors also include new content addressing nontraditional relationships beyond the polyamorous paradigm of "more than two": couples who don't live together couples who don't have sex with each other nonparallel arrangements couples with widely divergent sex styles power disparities and cross-orientation relationships while utilizing nonbinary gender language and new terms that have come into common usage since the last edition.

SlipDix: The Trusted, Body-Safe Online Sex Toy Shop

I’m James — founder, owner, and the real person behind SlipDix. With 18+ years in eCommerce & digital marketing, I built SlipDix to be a safer, more personal, and more trustworthy way to shop for quality adult toys & sexual wellness products.

Why I Started SlipDix

The idea for SlipDix started while I was on my honeymoon with my husband, Kevin. I was thinking about the future, what came next, and how I could build something meaningful that would help us create a better life.

With my background in eCommerce and digital marketing, I knew I could build more than just another online store. I wanted to create a place that felt safer, more personal, and more trustworthy than the big adult retailers that often feel overpriced, impersonal, or awkward to shop from.

As a gay man, I also know how important it is to feel safe, respected, and not judged when shopping for personal products. SlipDix was built to be a store where people can browse confidently, ask real questions if they need help, and know that their order is being handled by someone who actually cares.

SlipDix is not some giant, faceless corporation with inflated prices and generic support. It is a small, independent business run by me, James, from the greater Cleveland area. I personally manage the store, process orders, choose products, write content, answer messages, and constantly work to make the experience better.

My goal is simple: offer body-safe products, fair pricing, fast discreet shipping, and a shopping experience that feels human. Whether you are buying your first toy or know exactly what you like, I want SlipDix to feel like a place where you can shop without embarrassment, pressure, or judgment.

Every detail matters to me — from the products I choose to the way your package arrives. That is why orders ship discreetly, billing shows as SUTSTONE LLC, and I keep the store focused on privacy, quality, and trust.

When you shop with SlipDix, you are supporting a real person, a small business, and a store that was built with heart — not a boardroom.
