Given Consent

Good writing nourishes us literally every day. A cleverly conceived article headline. An all-too relevant and inspiring social media post. And a good book full of important stories, perspectives, and themes arguably nourishes us more than any other kind of writing.

This is why Given Consent (with Sex Positive 805's generous sponsorship) has launched the Poly Book Club! And our inaugural selection of The Ethical Slut is a GREAT one... But why, you ask?

​

1. They don't call it the "Poly Bible" for nothin'

2. It's a practical guide that can truly be applied to ANY relationship (trust us, we've applied it all over), especially poly and LGBTQ relationships

3. It gives us a primo jumping off point to discuss big questions with openness and vulnerability. Questions like...

WHAT TO EXPECT EACH SESSION

Expect to better understand and explore all aspects of human sexuality and its accompanying relationships

​

Expect purposefully organized, secured Zoom meetings led by a subject matter expert who's been planning and hosting Zoom meetings and community events for several years

​

Expect to discuss one chapter per book club session (for example, Chapter Two was discussed April 7; Chapter Three will be discussed April 14)

​

Expect to have your input be seen, heard, and valued no matter how many sessions/chapters you do or don't join us for

​

Expect to be vulnerable, honest, and compassionate

WHAT TO EXPECT ALL OTHER TIMES

Expect access to a safe, online, members-only Given Consent forum where you can continue diving into your favorite chapters, issues, themes, etc.

​

Expect to have your input be seen and valued no matter how you look, date, love, eat, smell, cuddle, brush your hair... Shall we go on?

​

Expect to be vulnerable, honest, and compassionate
