Rachel Krantz: ‘He was offering me non-monogamy - to have the cake and eat the pie too’

How would you respond to starting a relationship and being told by your new partner he was looking for a committed partnership—just one that did not include exclusivity? Author and journalist Rachel Krantz had to address just this with her ex-partner 'Adam' and she decided to try it.

In her debut memoir, ‘Open, An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation & Non-Monogamy’, Rachel candidly shares with the reader her experiences of exploring Brooklyn sex parties and being part of the swinger community.

In this clip, Rachel tells Woman's Hour presenter Chloe Tilley how she ended up in her first non-monogamous relationship and what she’s learned about herself through this relationship and her new polyamorous relationship.

You can listen to the rest of the programme on Woman's Hour by heading to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds and listening to the 19 January podcast episode.
