I've only watched the first episode so far so you are further along that I am, but judging a woman for not being perfectly happy with a very nice man who gives her everything that patriarchy says should make her happy is a bit harsh. Life, love, and sex are more complex than that. I totally concur that people should be honest and open about their wants and needs, but our culture doesn't really support that - although I've none-the-less gone that route anyhow. I also understand that it's not so easy in the society that we live in.

I do have it all, so there's no harm in wanting that. I have a wonderful husband, child, and home, as well as other lovers that my husband knows about and accepts - some we have together and some I have alone. He does too. Polyamory means self-responsibility, honesty, communication and more, but mostly people don't even realize that is an option, so I don't blame too much the people who were pigeon-holed into monogamy and then realized later it wasn't for them.

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint. I do not feel ashamed. I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothing in between.
