Ethnically Speaking is back for Season 2 and the ladies are finally all in one room! In this episode, Monah, Nushy Rose, and Sophie Hannah discuss whether women are forcing monogamous relationships on men. Are there different expectations for men and women when it comes to monogamy? What role does sex play and are men using polyamorous relationships as an excuse to sleep around? Does science say humans are meant to be monogamous or is having one partner at a time an outdated concept dreamed up by society? The ladies are exploring all angles in this episode of Ethnically Speaking and we want to hear your opinions in the comments below!
