Please note that this 1.5-hour event will be held at 4 PM PST, 7 PM ET, and 12 AM UTC. For attendee privacy, we will not record the Q&A portion.

First published in 1997, The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities made waves in the world of alternative relationships, academic environments, & even probably landed on your Mom's nightstand at some point. Since then, consensual non-monogamy has evolved into so many different frameworks & labels, from solo polyamory to relationship anarchy & a potpourri of so many other mainstream CNM frameworks!

Join Co-Author of The Ethical Slut & many other groundbreaking books on alternative sexuality & relationships, Janet W. Hardy, as she speaks on the evolution of how consensually non-monogamous relationship frameworks & how much has changed romantically & sexually since the publication of The Ethical Slut & where these frameworks could evolve into in the future.

Towards the end of our time together, we will have a moment to discuss as a community the impact of The Ethical Slut in the world of sex positivity, how sex positivity equates to freedom of expression, bodily and identity autonomy, as well as ask Janet any relevant questions.

This keynote will be recorded and available for up to seven days for ticket holders! No one is turned away for a lack of funds! If you are in a place of financial privilege, please consider choosing the "Funder" option when purchasing your ticket to help balance our access to education for all.
