I’m Open: Why Jenny Wants to Talk
Tango's newest blogger answers your questions about open marriage.
by Jenny Block
And it’s terrifying to think that we are the only ones having these thoughts. So we keep them to ourselves. We order our Subway foot-long and ask about the parking attendant’s family and suppress all the important conversations we are desperate to have.
So, despite the fact that I have and know I will continue to take slack for both my lifestyle and sharing it, I didn’t want to be alone anymore. And the result has been amazing. People from all over are writing to tell me how relieved they were that someone else is having the same feelings that they are. Relieved that they are not alone. Relieved that there is at least a starting point for this conversation. Relieved to discover that they are “normal” and perhaps that Cinderella isn’t.
There’s not only one way to live and to love.
I won’t lie. It’s not always easy being in a non-traditional relationship. Nor is it always easy baring my soul to the universe. But I believe both means are well worth their ends. That’s why I wrote the articles and the book and that is why I happily accepted the invitation from Tango to host this forum. I welcome your questions and comments. The only thing I ask is that you be respectful of me and one another. There is nothing like a good discussion. But flame wars are not my thing. Looking forward to “seeing you” next week.
Wishing you all the love you’re seeking,
Jenny

Jenny is beautifully vibrantly alive in her appearance - so appealing - because she is being honest and pure. Yes, pure. I find her to be totally sexy.
I am grateful for Jenny’s honesty and generosity. Will buy the book.
As for the women who feel obligated to comment on Jenny’s appearance or call her names - what a sad revelation of their weakness and poor insight. These women have adopted the attitude of immature, insecure men who feel threatened by powerful women, so protect themselves by pointing out some kind of shallow physical flaw or worse accusing them of self-hate by calling them names like slut.
Oh well, we all know that the ones who really hate themselves are the name callers and finger pointers. Maybe they should aske themselves why they are reading Jenny’s blog and what aspect of Jenny they find appealing…

Twistedangel - Why do you have to be so cruel? So she’s not super model material, what difference does it make? If you don’t like her, why are you still reading her stuff?
LOL - You’re “one of those people that finds promiscuity to be really disgusting.” But yet you ask to see pictures of her hubby and claim he might be “your cup of tea” even though you have a boyfriend. That sounds slightly hypocritical.

poor thing is such a bow wow…….everytime someone porks her she probably thinks she’s gorgeous..it builds her self esteem. I feel pity for her.

Do you help your husband get some ladies? Or is he uninterested in being open?
