Open Relationships

In episode 17 of Overthink, Ellie and David talk about open relationships. 50% of millennials are not interested in having purely monogamous relationships. With many still wanting a primary partner, some are turning towards open relationships. What do open relationships have to offer? Ellie and David start off by talking about their own experience with open relationships and its ties to their philosophical and feminist beliefs. Then the two dive into the open relationships of famous existentialist thinkers Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. It’s juicy! By the end of the episode they also discuss the romantic mystique, the triangulation of desire, our ability to understand desire, and more!

Works Discussed
Carrie Jenkins, What Love Is
Simone de Beauvoir, She Came to Stay
Simone de Beauvoir, The Ethics of Ambiguity
Tony Coelho, “Hearts, groins and the intricacies of gay male open relationships”
