Deconstructing Toxic Monogamy Culture and Building Intentional Relationships with Yema Rosado
Join us as we welcome Yema Rosado (she/they) for Deconstructing Toxic Monogamy Culture and Building Intentional Relationships on Thursday, May 5th at 7pm EST over Zoom!
Please note: This workshop will not be recorded.
No matter what your relationship orientation may be (non-monogamous, monogamous, polyamorous, etc.), no one is exempt from the pervasive influence of "toxic monogamy culture". Unhealthy and archaic narratives about love, sex and relationships are everywhere we look, from our family values, to our music and TV. And once you see it, you can't unsee it! Join Yema Rosado for a open discussion and reflection around combating the compulsory, debunking social myths and re-writing the relationship script to include more intentionality and expansiveness. This event is open to anyone and everyone (18 years and older) with an interest in healthy relationship building.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
Define and deconstruct Toxic Monogamy Culture
Debunk toxic/outdated relationship myths and clarify common relationship misconceptions
Introduce prompts that challenge the compulsory and promote intentionality in their relationships and share supportive resources and tools for navigating healthier relationships.
About Yema Rosado
I am a queer, trans, fat, Latinx, intersectional-feminist and abolitionist based in West Philadelphia. My personal and political identities are important to my work and impact my approach to holistic sex education and facilitation. I strive to offer consent-based, pleasure-centered, trauma-informed, and kink-competent workshops. Ultimately, I believe in healing myself and my community through sexual empowerment and radically inclusive sex education.
