Weather you’re monogamous or not, super-experienced or just heard about polyamory/non-monogamy, communication can be one of the biggest issues in a relationship, so let’s talk about how we talk (or, too often, don’t talk enough). I’ll be presenting some communication approaches and tools, as well as how to develop better communication skills. I would like to focus on how we communicate especially in very intense emotional times, and some of the most common pitfalls that occur there.
This is a facilitated discussion, not a presentation, so you are kindly invited to participate and share as much or as little as you’d like from your experience. Just listening is also ok. Because the topic is so personal, I highly encourage a policy of what is shared in this event stays in the event.
Discussion will be in English, with consideration for non-native English speakers.
Facilitator has no formal training in related fields, just personal experience and determination to develop more ethical and sustainable ways of relating.

“There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door).
The bathrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building). There is no bathroom on the ground floor.
Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.”

Andspyrna’s reading circle will be held for the second time Sunday third of february. In our last session we read a marxist feminist text by Selma Jones and Mariarosa Dalla Costa. We decided that for now the topic of our reading circle is the concept and reality of work, since it is one of the concepts that governs our everyday life and has a multitude of meanings. In later sessions we will explore the anarchist notion of the destruction of work and take a further look into a feminist analyses of work and capitalism.
In this upcoming session, however, we want to get a bit more familiar to Marx’s thought and are thus reading the introduction and first chapter of “How to read Marx?” by Peter Osborne.
