Friday, March 30, 2012 at 5:24PM The phenomenal growth of online communication has given rise to an amazing amount of sharing, learning and experimenting with different expressions of sexuality, relationships and feminism. MOMENTUM provides a safe place to listen, discuss and learn about sexualities and gender without the fear of reprisal or shaming. It is a space for acceptance and appreciation of diversity, including for those in the LGBTQ, sex-work, BDSM and non-monogamous communities.

The New Monogamy: Redefining Relationships - Is Infidelity the New Monogamy?
Tammy Nelson, PhD
We live in a culture where almost fifty percent of married people get divorced. Many of these marriages end as a result of infidelity, perhaps as high as one third. Does this mean that as a society in general we are not committed to monogamy?
It may be hard to continue to view infidelity as an out of the norm behavior in a country where almost 60% of men and over 45% of women will cheat at some point in their marriage.
Today, couples in modern marriages are negotiating their fidelity partly as a way to avoid the pain of betrayal. This new type of attachment includes management of their relationship through negotiation. This “out-fidelity” (versus infidelity) means that their affairs are out in the open. Couples can have sexual and emotional relationships with others as long as there is complete honesty and disclosure.
More and more couples are broadening their understanding of what commitment and monogamy means to them, without giving up the desire for a long-term, committed relationship with one person. This new monogamy is different than polyamory, not the same as open marriage, and could lead to a new development in society and sexual freedom altogether.
Thursday, March 22, 2012 at 2:00PM SEX AND LOVE ON THE INTERNET
At the Omni in DC Tammy Nelson will present in front of psychotherapists at the Psychotherapy Networker on Finding Sex and Love on the Internet - how single people both new and second chance daters can find hope, sex and disaster online. In this new world of virtual connection, the risks and the rewards are great, and frankly, the only option for people looking for love.
