The Best Polyamory Resources
Where to look for information, guidance, and connection
--
My journey into polyamory began with a friend and a book. In the days after my divorce, a delightful new friend lent me “The Ethical Slut,” and I began to discover the language around feelings deep within me. I was lucky. This friend and then my boyfriend led me to a local sex-positive center that hosted a monthly Polyamory Discussion Group. Within a month, I began building myself a community.
For many people, it’s not that easy. Having someone literally hand you one of the best books around on polyamory is pretty lucky! But what if you don’t know polyamorous people? Here are the best resources I’ve come across for understanding and exploring polyamory.
