Integrated Non Monogamy
By Michon Neal
It's time to tell the story of the word "noetisexual" and all that means about what I've experienced. This is for putting in order the events the humans who don't care cast asunder. Our memories are not the issue nor the lie. We know what we experienced. I'll share mine, if you listen. Feel free to share if you feel inclined, via Anchor interview.

INM Ep 9: Abuse Culture Tips: Questions and Steps to Take
I go over the basics of abuse culture and restorative justice, highlighting questions to ask yourself and your peers in order to plot a victim-affirming path forward, and finally providing some steps to take in the event of abuse. I tackle the nefarious myth that "hurt people hurt people" and draw a line between marginalized identity and inherent abusive nature.

INM Ep 8: So, Where Have I Been? Preparing!
I know I've been gone a while, but I've not been idle. I've been gearing up for projects like Michón Con, which you can sign up for at drove.com/.BLh. I've also been running an Aro Eros Arrows podcast (anchor.fm/AroErosArrows) and a book drive (https://drove.com/.EVk)!
I've also been writing again in a cuilverse book, but I'll sneak you details later on.
I'll be back to making regular episodes soon, so send good energy my way in this cold. Winter is here and it is pissed!
So stay tuned, and don't forget to check out my other sites to see what I'm currently up to. You'll never be disappointed.

INM Ep 7: Does Being Polya Mean You're Queer?
More people are learning about things like compersion, intimate friendships, and open and honest communication. Many of the tools and skills that people learn to hone while engaging in polyamory carry over into other aspects of life not remotely related to romance and sex.
However, people still tend to ignore the full implications of the ethical part of non-monogamy, and so mainstream relationships simply end up being monogamy + (however many additional partners) - meaning they end up replicating the same harmful or abusive status quo that queer people have to actively fight just to live.
So, who gets to define themselves as queer, anyway?

INM Ep 6: What's Love Really Got to Do With It, Though?
Here, I break down the triangular theory of love, as well as shed light on aromantic, autistic, asexual, and BlaQueer perspectives of nonmonogamy, polyamory, romance, and more.
Hat tip to Salem Goosby for their term "autilove"; check out their work at holdingpatternsandhightea.wordpress.com/
I mean, weren't you told there were just endless possibilities within nonmonogamy and polyamory?
Have you ever actually fucking heard all the options, though? You prob'ly haven't considered any of these experiences and how they might help you form better relationships.

INM Ep 5: But What About Compersion and the Limit On Social Circles?
Ethics doesn't end when you have the love you want. Being a game changer is a continuous process.
What if American Ninja Warrior was the standard for how we
treated one another?
We rarely care about people we don’t know because we fail to even conceptualize them as human beings. Humans are thought to have a literal limit on how many people they can actually, deeply care for and keep account of.
How can non-monogamy grow in practicing intersectionality without tokenizing humans, without ignoring alternate experiences, and without fizzling out into the same sort of normalcy that oppresses others?

INM Ep 4: Myths and Non-Monogamous Community
Polyamory and other non-monogamies are ALL about the community and not just the sex, aren't they?
So why is it that lack of desirability can be a death sentence? Why aren't more survivors centered over their abusers? Why haven't we seen more Black nonmen in leadership positions? Where the fuck are the guide books and sexy movies by and about disabled autistic queer Two Spirit people?
Yeah, there are some things really off about the "ethical" part of "ethical non-monogamy" and I'll explain why.

INM Ep 3: What Exactly is Integrated Non- Monogamy?
Intersectional/Integrated Non-Monogamy did not exist as a phrase until I coined it quite a few years ago. It involves discussing the actual history of non-monogamy and polyamory before the white mainstream stumbled onto it. It goes beyond simply discussing jealousy and compersion. It rejects slut-shaming or otherwise being ableist about STIs. It develops a concept of safer sex that is intersex/sex variant, trans/gender variant, and trauma-inclusive.
You may hear this term used by nonBlack people claiming to teach it, so know your shit and get the real definition and praxis here.
After all, ethics is not about talking points; it's about how you treat ALL the people, especially those you don't love romantically and/or those you don't want to fuck or who don't want to fuck you.
