About this listen

No one likes a know-it-all, but everyone loves a girl with brains and heart. The Smart Girl's Guide to Polyamory is an intelligent and comprehensive guide to polyamory, open relationships, and other forms of alternative love, offering relationship advice radically different from anything you'll find on the magazine rack.

This practical guidebook will help women break free of the mold of traditional monogamy, without the constraints of jealousy, possessiveness, insecurity, and competition. The Smart Girl's Guide to Polyamory incorporates interviews and real-world advice from women of all ages in nontraditional relationships, as well as exercises for building self-awareness, confidence in communication, and strategies for managing and eliminating jealousy. If you're curious about exploring group sex, opening up your current monogamous relationship, or ready to "come out" as polyamorous, this book covers it all!

Whether you're a seasoned graduate, a timid freshman, or somewhere in between, you'll learn how to discover and craft unique relationships that are healthy, happy, sexy, and tailor-made for you. Because when it comes to your love life, being a know-it-all is actually a great thing to be.

This is a very well written book. I loved the narration and found it a pleasurable listen.
I was surprised to find this book was very relevant to me as a poly man.

Highly recommended.

Not just for smart girls :)

Thank you, this book really helped me realize that there is nothing wrong with what I want in a relationship

If I had this book years ago, it would've saved me a lot of heartache

There are many out there. But I would suggest to start here. It’s experiential, well researched and resourceful. It’s objective and non-judgemental. Dedecker Winston draws from personal experience where relevant and objectively. Which is really key as poly is about people not wholly about practice.

THE poly book to read

Loved the openness and detail given. Thought provoking and interesting for someone thinking of polyamory.

Great information

As an open minded, sex positive male, i know this wasnt aimed for me. However, this book was a thought provoking listen and highlighted different perspectives that I have always been interested in. Would fully recommend (and already have to several people)

Not the target audience, but well worth it
