The Ethical Slut
A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities
Why people recommend it
The Ethical Slut by Dossie Easton and Catherine A. Liszt is a foundational guide to non-monogamous relationships, ethical polyamory, and sexual liberation. Geoffrey Miller recommended the book on The Joe Rogan Experience during the September 25, 2018 episode, numbered #1173 - Geoffrey Miller. While discussing human evolution and relationship structures, Miller noted that while other works like Christopher Ryan's Sex at Dawn are valuable reads, they should not be treated as the final word on human sexuality and polyamory. To broaden the perspective on alternative relationship models, Miller pointed to The Ethical Slut as a strong and useful resource for understanding ethical non-monogamy. His mention of the book highlighted its utility as a practical companion for people navigating non-traditional romantic dynamics, offering guidance on communication, consent, and emotional management outside the confines of strict monogamy, thereby contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of human relational possibilities.
