What are three books you'd recommend to the audience I I gave this so much thought the ethical slot by dosti Easton and Janet Hardy I'm sure since moving to San Francisco you probably heard this book mentioned or seen it on a shelf somewhere it was published 25 years ago and it's sort of the Code of Hammurabi where.

Why people recommend it

The Ethical Slut by Dossie Easton and Catherine A. Liszt is a widely recognized guide to non-monogamous relationships, polyamory, and alternative approaches to human connection. The book received strong recommendations from prominent figures across different interview platforms. On The Ezra Klein Show, Dan Savage recommended the book to the audience as a foundational guide for ethical non-monogamy, noting that it was published twenty-five years ago and had long served as a standard code for people navigating relationships outside traditional boundaries. Savage suggested it as a vital text that listeners had likely encountered on bookshelves or in cultural discussions, particularly for those moving to progressive areas like San Francisco. Additionally, Geoffrey Miller appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience and recommended Dossie Easton's book as an essential text on polyamorous relationships. While Miller acknowledged other evolutionary works like Christopher Ryan's Sex at Dawn, he positioned Easton's book as a key practical manual for understanding human intimacy and non-traditional relationship structures. Both podcast guests emphasized the enduring cultural and practical relevance of the guide for modern relationship dynamics.
