love

It's a very common trope in movies and series: people wondering whether, and when, and how they should say “I love you” for the first time to someone they're dating... people worrying about saying it too early, about the other person not saying it back...

But what if we stopped making such a big deal out of it?

I think we should see other people... No, I’m not breaking up with you, quite the opposite.

And I’m kinda scared...

Let’s not kid ourselves, most of us would like to have more than one partner. But we rarely dare to admit it. The taboo on polygamy is too big.

I hate taboos though! Let’s loosen it up a notch! Let’s talk about non-monogamy and why it’s not as evil and depraved as it might sound.

schönstes gedicht der welt
braucht kaum zwei wörter

beide ganz unwesentlich

the poem most beautiful
needs merely two words

both totally irrelevant

najpiękniejszy wiersz świata
składa się raptem z dwóch słów

i to zupełnie nieistotnych
