Sex and the System - What does Love have to do with Economics?

What does Love have to do with Economics?

10/13/22 • 23 min

Sex and the System

How is our everyday thinking influenced by economics? And how does this affect our love life?
In this episode, I unpack and discuss the way we think about love is influenced by economics. I discuss starvation economy (from the book "the Ethical Slut"), unconditional love, and transactional relationships. I will show you why it is so important to take a moment and reflect on those topics, and how this can combat jealousy and insecurity in ethical non-monogamy.

Therapy, Knowledge and Power

In this episode, I touch on the importance of kink-aware therapists. I discuss Foucault's concept of knowledge and power, to explain where conflicts between a Sadist or Masochist and a therapist can come from. What are the consequences? And what can we do to bridge this gap?
