The Ethical Slut - by Janet W. Hardy & Dossie Easton

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.

Review from Drew: This is the book you’re handed at the front door on your first day of polyamory school. But I honestly think anyone would benefit from reading it - if not cover to cover, then at least skipping around in it and reading the parts that either intrigue or horrify you. The book is written on the radical premise that sex is nice and pleasure is good for you, and are parts of life to be sought after and celebrated, not ashamed of. As I read it I felt a huge weight come off my chest and lots of moments of “Wait - yeah! It should be that way!” Very liberating book, which is what I’m after.
