#7: Open House: The Great Sex Experiment or Lifestyle Letdown??

🎙 Episode 7: The Great Sex Experiment or Lifestyle Letdown?

This week on Beyond Vanilla, we’re diving into Channel 4’s Open House: The Great Sex Experiment — a show designed to introduce vanilla couples to non-monogamy. But as two happily married besties in thriving non-monogamous relationships, we have thoughts… and not all of them are good.

We waited until episode 2 aired to really dig in — giving you our take on what played out on screen, plus your opinions sent in via Instagram.

We’re unpacking:
📺 The good, the bad & the downright cringey moments
🎭 How the show may be using the hardest parts of the lifestyle to fuel drama
🧠 Why mindset, communication & boundaries are everything

🙃 And what mainstream media keeps getting wrong about non-monogamy

We love this lifestyle — and we’re not here for it being reduced to a TV ratings tool.
