Two television shows explore nontraditional relationships
I'd be much more encouraged about its radical potential if the show were about polyamory, a newer concept with no religious affiliation. Polyamory focuses on multiple committed loving and sexual relationships (that may or may not include marriage), allows for multi-gendered partner configurations, and usually involves all partners being non-monogamous (not just the men). It emphasizes honesty and communication.
Unencumbered by religion and stigma, The Girls Next Door holds more promise as a revolutionary relationship model, but it's superficial and feels like a commercial for Playboy. In both shows, I want to see the relationships fleshed out, but so far producers seem more interested in showing flesh. I've seen my fill of bare breasts and simulated doggie-style sex. Let us peek inside the minds and hearts of the people!
