Deconstructing Monogamy After Mormonism | S(ex) Mormon Therapist

Описание: The Ghost of Eternal Polygamy: Haunting the Hearts and Heaven of Mormon Women and Men: https://amzn.to/3HI7oPo

Was monogamy truly your choice—or a legacy you inherited? In this candid, educational breakdown, an ex‑Mormon certified sex therapist examines how Mormon history and theology around polygamy still shape modern monogamous relationships—especially through ownership dynamics, jealousy myths, and spiritual coercion. You’ll learn how teachings about “eternal marriage” and gendered roles can fuel sexual shame, silence desire, and confuse fidelity with control.

Then we get practical: what “deconstructing monogamy” actually means, how to replace fear with curiosity, and how to align any relationship style—monogamous or not—with consent, sovereignty, transparency, and your real values. Expect grounded prompts about fidelity and needs, plus a reframing of jealousy and commitment as you untangle love from obedience and reclaim your story.
