I don't necessarily identify as a relationship anarchist, though I realize now that I was supposed to post "post-relationship anarchists" :')
I think RA works for some people, but I know that while I aim for non-hierarchical relationships-- by definition, my spouse has benefits my other partners don't have. But as I grow older, I'm less concerned about labelling connections, and more concerned if they're long-term compatible. I'd rather have enduring, genuine closeness than paltry surface-level one-offs.
HAHA yes, it feels so much more human to me to look at what something is and how a dynamic works or wants to be, than to assign any value judgments that society wants us to!
love this :’)) “We don’t need to define because we return to what we keep becoming.” I’m definitely on the RA train lol
