You may not realize how much of an impact being nonmonogamous can have on your legal rights. People have been fired from work for being polyamorous, are prevented from joining health insurance policies, have little access to effective therapy, have no protection for assets acquired while in polyamorous relationships, have no say in what happens if one of your partners passes away, and have extreme difficulty being seen as legal guardians for children. In this episode we talk about what sort of legal protection is available, how some areas have changed their laws regarding alternative family structures, and how you can make sure you're protected in the ways that matter to you!
