I suppose from standpoint theory that makes a lot of sense. <BR/><BR/>I wonder what you mean, though, when you say that it's not possible to share it beyond your relationship--do you mean that it's somehow essential to just that one relationship, or that other types of relationships might not gel the same way...or something else?Jeff Pollethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789663140920958914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28989955.post-34721575385024293402007-08-21T11:56:00.000-07:002007-08-21T11:56:00.000-07:00I wanted to reply to her post, but I'm still turni...I wanted to reply to her post, but I'm still turning over in my head how to do it. I wanted to address the way that having a male partner, with whom I have a sexual relationship as well as an intimate interpersonal relationship, has been really enlightening about feminist issues. Having a very open and trusting sexual relationship allows for a lot of very open communication about gender issues that I couldn't get anywhere else. And I don't know that it's possible to share it beyond our relationship, either. That's just the beginning, but I thought I'd leave here what I'm thinking so far.saraeandersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119958547959999754noreply@blogger.com
