Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, over steep ways to the stars, fulfills itself.

Dan Savage on Stephen Colbert

So i was recently watching this clip of the incredible Dan Savage on The Colbert Report. It's so fascinating because he talks about the institution of marriage and how monogamy isn't always necessary. Not that you cant be monogamous but that it's ok to have more open relationships. I think that he makes some really valid arguments, people are so hung up on this idea of monogamy that they forget that "till death do us part" is a long time. For some (not all) they might wanna experience different things that their partners may not. So without further adieu may I introduce Dan Savage...well and Stephen Colbert.

Check out the video HERE

  2. Soon!! I'm actually so excited to meet you! Although i do have to say my fav part of this clip was "have you ever had extra-marital affairs? and Dan goes "Well...does it count as Adultery if he's on one end of the guy and i'm on the other end of that SAME guy?" I died!

  3. I've always found it amusing when people have oral sex with someone else and say it doesn't count as cheating because there was no intercourse involved. If you're going to do it fine, who am I to judge? But let's call it what it is.

    And unrelated to this previous thought (lol) I can't wait to have you two over!

  4. yea we Lissa and i kinda rock. lol I dont think i've ever heard anyone deny that they were cheating when it was only ("only") oral sex. The point is you preformed a sexual act with another human being without the consent of your partner.....how do you feel about cheating? What would u do if your wife told u one day that she had cheated on you? What would u do if you caught her?
