Description
Monogamous Mind Polyamorous Terror explores how our concepts of love, relationships, and family are shaped by exclusivity, possession, and hierarchies. Spanish scholar Brigitte Vasallo examines how these mechanisms have been deeply rooted in society and individuals, and how they impact our understanding of polyamory.
Through extensive research on polyamorous relationships, Vasallo breaks down the foundations of Western history and reveals the possibilities of a different approach for a different world. Her critique challenges the status quo and offers a radical revolution in relationships, whether erotic, familial, or communal.
This thought-provoking essay sheds light on the complexities of love, relationships, and identity, and invites readers to consider alternative perspectives on what it means to be in love and to form connections with others.
