Damon L. Jacobs Chooses Queer Joy
About this episode
Damon L. Jacobs discusses the complexities of intimacy and relationships in the context of queer joy and the sexual revolution.
The sexual revolution didn’t happen all at once, it came in throbbing waves: the Pill. Stonewall. The AIDS crisis. The Internet. Grindr. PrEP. Doxy PEP. Sniffies! We have more options than ever before and yet some still feel lonely. Swipe culture gives us abundance, but it also trains us to treat each other like custom coffee drinks. How do we build intimacy without running a background check on somebody? And why does jealousy still show up like it is paying the rent? Today, queer activist and marriage and family therapist Damon L. Jacobs joins us to unpack the great queer divide: monogamy vs. open relationships. His web series Choosing Queer Joy argues that joy isn’t frivolous, it’s revolutionary. But when we start talking about sex, love, and commitment the revolution can get real messy, real fast.
