Discussion 1B - Not seen the show

​

The show is about a monogamous couple that become friendly with their new neighbours who reveal they're in an open relationship and drama follows. What do you think happens?

​

In media representations of Ethical Non-Monogamy, what do you feel is becoming clichéd? What would you like to be seeing more of?

​

If you were interested in the open couple next door, what/how would you discuss this with your own partnership? How would you approach this couple next door?

Evie becomes attracted to Danny (who is not her partner). Do you feel partners should share their attractions with each other? If yes, when?​

​

The first two episodes present Pete threatened by Danny's masculinity. Has hyper / toxic masculinity ever impacted your relationship(s) dynamic?

​

Some would call the representation of Ethical Non-Monogamy in the show swinging / couple swapping. What do you feel are the advantages and disadvantages of couple swapping compared to other forms of ENM?
