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.
