Additionally, as board games become more mainstream (e.g. board game cafes, sold in high street shops), there seems to multiple board game cultures in existence, some of which are more exclusionary or more welcoming than others

This is an excellent take and something that came up recently in my analysis/writing up of my women and board games culture data - policing individual’s taste in games and looking down on the less ‘complex’

In exciting news, I am one of the new associate editors for Psychology & Sexuality as @LiamWignall & @philhammack take the reins! I particularly love its commitment to qualitative work related to sex & sexuality - a perspective all too often overlooked and misunderstood

Doing some research and was surprised to find that that between 1967-2003, group sex between men was a legal offence in England & Wales. Essentially sex between men in private was decriminalised in 1967 but more than 2 people was not considered private legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/196…

Immutability or ‘born this way’ arguments were central to the LGBTQ legal and social advocacy efforts. Should consensual non-monogamy go the same route? In my most recent blog I delve into the heart of this discourse: medium.com/@dr.schechinger/n… #relationshipdiversity #polyamory

In another instance of "polyamory is quite discriminated against and nobody is talking about this", Facebook doesn't allow nonmonog ads on its platform.
