A provocative, trauma-informed guide to post-monogamy—how to build liberated relationships rooted in empowerment, equity, and authenticity

With practical somatic exercises, reflection prompts and a relational toolkit—also includes a glossary of polyamory, non-monogamy, and alternative relationship terms


This book is for polyamorists who want to practice their non-monogamy with more feminism, more queerness, and more community building. It’s for monogamists who don’t want to do relationships on autopilot. It’s for everyone who dearly believes a better way to love and live exists. It’s for change makers who aspire to re-wild the ways we love.

An empowering guide to imagining (and living) better relationships, Radical Relating pushes back on the monogamy mandate. Author, somatic educator, and relationship coach Mel Cassidy explodes the often-unquestioned mainstream myths about the nuclear family structure: those that tell us your soulmate must be your sole mate. That sex is the only yardstick of relational success. That self-sacrifice and self-denial are necessary trade-offs for security and partnership. That we need to ride the relationship escalator all the way up, or we’ll die alone.

In four sections, Cassidy explains the why, what, how, and where of the Radical Relating model. They:
  • Lay out clear-eyed analysis about why monogamy isn’t working and explain the harms of unquestioned internalized mono-normativity
  • Offer Reflective Journaling prompts, Somatic Pauses, and practical wisdom for assembling your Relational Toolkit
  • Explain the trauma-informed pillars of Radical Relating: Orientation, Resilience, Resolution, and Engagement
  • Help you reorient to a new map for relating that’s queer, anarchist, and somatically integrated
  • Help you build skills to understand and navigate your relationship landscape
  • Explore the intersections of monogamy, colonialism, patriarchy, and capitalism and illuminate how monogamous relationship structures emerged with one goal in mind: to consolidate capital

Most books on non-monogamy focus on top-level logistics and play into beliefs that can inadvertently replicate oppressive structures. Radical Relating is different: it speaks to readers who want not only to open up their relationships or expand their sexual experiences, but claim a new and liberating ways to relate to each other, fulfill our authentic needs, and build true communities of care beyond monogamy.

Great fabric & plaids! Quality construction.
Fit Type: Slim Fit, Color: Light Blue/White, Plaid, Size: X-Small, Fit Type: Slim Fit, Color: Light Blue/White, Plaid, Size: X-Small
"Light Blue White Medium Plaid" has an overall pale aqua coloring, well represented by the product photos. it's even prettier in person, with a pale purple/pink stripe and other subtle touches. 5 STARS FOR: - Fabulous 100% Cotton fabric gets better with every wash. - Thin (but sturdy) fabric, comfortable working outside in hot, humid SW Florida. - OFFERING XS SLIM-FIT: Finding this XS in a slim fit Men's shirt was a game changer for me, a slim 5'7" woman with long arms, broad shoulders and slim hips. The AE Women's version of this shirt is boxy with laughably short sleeves, and is not offered in slim fit! - Quality construction throughout. Good attention to detail, eg, matching patterns at the pocket and front placket. - FABULOUS PLAIDS, many are unique and subtly complex. - ATTRACTIVE COLOR OPTIONS, lots of different Blues. I've also enjoyed the paler (some might consider more feminine) colors like lavender, pink and pale aqua. - UNBEATABLE PRICING, ESP ON SALE. At full price, these would be a good purchase. I put my favorites into the shopping cart, and wait to be notified of sale prices. I've purchased five shirts for under $10 each, by watching for sales. PAID: $7.67 on 1/24/2026 for XS in "Light Blue White Medium Plaid".

Comfortable and well made.
A well-made, cotton shirt, suitable for casual wear. I like to wear this in the summer untucked with the sleeves rolled up over a colored t-shirt. I found the tail of the shirt to be a bit too long to wear untucked without looking odd, so I had it shortened; now it fits perfectly. It is made of cotton, so an iron is mandatory if you don’t want to look like you slept in it, and it will get some wrinkles as the day progresses, but that’s cotton’s nature. I liked it so much I purchased a second one.

Nice shirt, runs a tad small.
Fit Type: Slim Fit, Color: Light Blue/Indigo, Plaid, Size: X-Large
I guess that slim-fit is not for my hubby and this is a little too fitted across his pooch belly. But he loved the blue color plaid. Fits well elsewhere. If you're not a flat-stomach, dont bother with slim-fit I guess.
