Poly, Weakly: Episode 372 (Swingers explain non-monogamy to Minx)


-The Swingset people are remarkably articulate.  It throws a stark contrast on the maturity difference between the voices of the poly community and those
of the dirty swingers CM dislikes so much.
-They spend 5 minutes explaining how close swinging is to poly, even two sides of the same coin, and then CM asks if they're trying to bring the
different communities together.
-Minute 9, CM manages to be a real ass.  She's not open or a swinger so why does she need their community?  They talk about voting blocks and
collective power, and CM seems lost beyond the concept of her clique.
-He makes a good point that swinger-open-poly needs to band together like LGBT.  Minx's snort almost sounds like feedback.
-Is CM not a swinger?  She hasn't pointed it out in a while.  Oh wait.  Nevermind.  Could it be clearer that she looks down on it?
-"Don't dom me," CM tells a joke and it's actually funny.
-Oh shit, Cooper calls out poly people for saying casual sex is icky.  Sadly, it whooshed over CM's head.
-OFFS, she's calling out donations again.  She always brings up the amount.  Damn it's vulgar.
-Hundreds of thousands of people helped?  Seriously?  If only the UN had her efficacy.

Poly, Weakly: Episode 371 (I can't finish this now. It is too shit to deal with)



-Hey there's a new conference and the podcast gets money for it.  Not directly said, but you know, it's the thought of money that counts.
-Oh shit, there are classes oriented toward secondaries and talking to metamors.  Wait, a polyamory bootcamp?  Seriously?  Do they break fingers too?  Please!
-Wooo! the conference includes poly speed dating, also known as speed dating.  Still stupid.
-LG is back...yay...
-a letter from some whose short-lived relationship was failing. Oh fuck.  I don't care.  I really don't.  This podcast just makes me weep.
