The next Call off the Thought and Sing is February 13th: (How) is love evolving? - Call off the Though and Sing No .4: Are old social norms eroding? What is emerging in their place?
Is love evolving? If so, how? From shifts in gender templates and power balances, to communication styles, attachment styles, wounds and healing; from monogamy to non- monogamy and a plethora of new terms for gender, orientation and relationship structures; from the nuclear family (is it radioactive?) to community. Lots to talk about, and feel, and sing into. Let's come together. With; Rachel Rickards, Ohad Pele, Sola Story and Sasha Damjanovski
