Coming Out Poly with the Frisky Fairy

While some of us are free and safe to share our stories about the ones we love, our loved ones may not be the same. Feelings of illegitimacy can be enough to dissolve new relationships, and fracture existing ones. Join this encouraging discussion with Rebecca Hiles, Co-Author of "It's Called Polyamory" Coming Out About Your Nonmonogamous Relationships on how, when, and why to come out, how to manage the discomfort of living in a relationship that is still partially in the closet, finding a compromise on being "out", and maintaining your and your partner's safety during the coming out process.
