SUMMARY:Spider Robinson’s Poly Primers
DESCRIPTION:Spider Robinson’s Poly Primers\nZoom 11 am to 1 pm | Live 11 am to 4 pm\nCallahan’s Crosstime Saloon introduces a group of people who support each other in handling their problems and celebrating their joys. In this and later books they go beyond this to actual group telepathic communication. In Callahan’s Keys\, they show their commitment to each other by all moving out-of-state together when local laws and the abuse of them prevented them from meeting together where they were. \nAccording to Spider’s biographical material\, many of the metaphysical as well as the group-related experiences come from his real-life ones with his expanded family and close friends during the ‘60s in Haight Ashbury. The Lady Callahan books are definitely Poly as committed couples share their partners with customers of this high-class brothel/ international diplomacy center. The “artists” who work there have relationships with the Lady herself\, other artists (some of which include legal marriage)\, etc. \nLady Callahan’s place could itself be considered a group house since the artists and some of their partners actually do live there. Spider’s Stardance series features very unusually configured group marriages— combining extra-terrestrials with humans\, gays with straights who share mental “intercourse” etc. Eventually\, his proposed intentional Family includes the whole human race\, past\, present\, and future. \nSpider Robinson has written many other stories with incidental poly themes in fictional worlds where it is assumed any choice of whom and how many you love is OK. He has been called the new Heinlein by many. \nHow can we use this information in our own group living and multiple committed relationship efforts? \n\n11am | Lively Poly Discussion\n1pm | Potluck Lunch – Bring something healthy and delicious to share.  \n2-4pm | Socializing in the clothing-optional hot tub\, Bring sandals and a towel\n\nIf you haven’t already done so\, make sure to check out this month’s LTD newsletter.\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\n https://us02web.zoom.us/j/3175971626?pwd=NWVjU3A2M0I2Q29IUkI4L1lMRzd2QT09 \nMeeting ID: 317 597 1626  Passcode: Heinlein \nFind us Always here on the 3rd Saturday from 11AM-  1PM Pacific Time.
