FEBRUARY 26, 2014 ~ It’s out: “The Ethical Slut, an Alternative Love Story,”
the webseries.
Remember filmmaker Ben Fritz’s Kickstarter campaign last year for his Ethical Slut webseries? Now you can
watch all of Season 1.
.
Filmed in Madison, Wisconsin, it’s “inspired by” the classic poly and open-relationship guidebook by Dossie
Easton and Janet Hardy (and has their blessing). Fritz and his crew have posted Season 1, with 12 short
(mostly 5- to 8-minute) episodes. And, he announced earlier this month, “Season 2 is in post-production,
and Season 3 starts filming this week!”

Here are all episodes of Season 1.
Director’s description:
Dotty, a marriage therapist, sees couples who don’t appreciate each other. When her friend
Jackie confesses to cheating on her husband, she’s motivated to find alternative ways people
organize relationships. Is it possible to have all the sex, love, and affection you can dream of,
without the shame and guilt?
.The Ethical Slut is the official handbook to polyamorous living. It’s a no-holds-barred guide
for anyone who dreams of a world beyond conventional relationships. A slut is anyone of any
gender who has the courage to lead a life according to the principals that sex is nice and pleasure
is good for you. Dotty and Jackie, two friends in Madison, Wisconsin, find The Ethical Slut
when they discover that convention relationships aren’t working in their lives.
.Dotty, a marriage therapist, wants to find new ways of helping her clients organize satisfying
lives and challenge herself to keep growing. Jackie, a successful real estate agent, has found a
new zest for life in a newly awakened sexuality, but finds it conflicts with her old life.
.Together, with the aid of The Ethical Slut, they begin to explore the wide world or relationships,
and the infinite possibilities. The series is shot in Madison, Wisconsin and many of Madison’s
favorite locations and businesses are represented. We are always seeking support and
donations to keep our series going.
