Episode Description
How do you talk to your monogamous partner about consensual non-monogamy? In what ways do the swinging, polyamorous and LGBTQ+ communities intersect? How can media and fiction writing evolve to include a better representation of people of all genders, sexual orientations and relationship styles? In this interview with Lexi Sylver, Cooper shares how he and his partner began their foray into consensual non-monogamy, and the lessons they learned along their journey. He reveals the challenges he has encountered being a queer-identified swinger, and how swingers can be more inclusive of bisexual men in the lifestyle. Lexi and Cooper explore the double standard of male bisexuality in the lifestyle, and the roles that toxic masculinity, homophobia, and internalized shame play when it comes to the perception of bisexual men. Cooper also shares how he features representative characters in his books, and why it is important for other writers and media to do the same.
