Hello,

Today I am pleased to announce the beginning of a new trans/NB oriented Ethically Non-Monogamous community here on Blahaj.

Goal is to have a safe place for trans people who are ENM to post about ENM, interest in ENM or about their ENM relationships. If you have any questions about ENM etc feel free to check out [email protected]

Thank you

    We also don’t agree with hierarchy at all in relationships, this means that friends are not less or more important than partners and vice versa, amd one partner is not more important than another. Instead we tend to go for temporary priorities but nobody is overall more important than anybody else.

    Yeah, my understanding of relationship anarchy is that it is principally about the lack of hierarchy.

    We tend not to go for the relationship escalator, nor pushing each other into things etc, instead it is very consensual, unlike other relationship types, everything is discussed and consented to, and if it isn’t it doesn’t happen.

    I don’t think you’re being very fair here. I have seen people in all styles of relationship get this wrong, similarly for getting it right. I think this is the way it should work no matter how your relationship is negotiated.

      Yeah, that’s uh, fair. We guess a better way to put it is more than any other way of relating it is supposed to be that way, other relationship types are not inherently set up that way nor have that as an inherent guideline, is that okay?
