Poly / Ethical Non-monogamy meetup Yorkshire

In Feb, we are starting up a meetup in Leeds for anyone who isn't monogamous. This is the monthly meeting that doesn't judge you for doing ethical non-monogamy your way, no matter what you call it.

We still have some details to finalise but what we can tell you is the group is for anyone with an interest - you don't have to be kinky, experienced or in a relationship. It's an early evening meetup on the 4th Tuesday to discuss, network and support each other.

Each month, we'll choose a topic to discuss, suggested and voted for by you. We'd also like some volunteers to speak about their experiences and answer questions from members of the group.

These are our ideas, we'd love yours:
  • Starting out poly (Coming out to myself)
  • Dealing with jealousy
  • Relationship contracts
  • Long-distance poly 
  • STI tests/rules/agreements
  • Non-monogamy terms explained
  • Poly and kinky
  • Poly dating
Name suggestions:
  • TaPE Me. The poly and ethical meet up!
  • PolyTechnique
  • Love+Plus or Love+More
  • Ethical Sluttery

Over to you!
  • Suggest a name - ethical non-monogamy is a mouthful, what do you think the meetup should be called?
  • Want to join in? Let us know you're interested.
  • Ask questions!
  • Suggestions, ideas, anything else?
Post here or drop me a line.

  1. Splendid to see another meetup appearing, I wish you the very best of luck with it!

    When you have all the details pinned down, do get in touch with us at Polytical.org so we can add it to the list of local meetups. :o)

  2. Definitely interested in this. So, the first one will be 28th Feb? I've pencilled it in and will watch for developments.

    Incidentally, I'll probably call it the "polymeet" regardless of what it's actual name ends up being... Doesn't need a fancy name, just what it says on the tin!
