The aunties debate whether polygamy could ever work in modern relationships, what it means when a man has multiple households, and why some women stay attached to titles like “wife” even when the relationship is unhealthy.\nThe conversation expands into modern dating, cheating, open relationships, double standards between men and women, and why more women may be choosing relationships with women after dating men. They also respond to an “Ask the Aunties” voice note about finding a modern-day “Shirley,” inspired by Shirley Brown’s classic song “Woman to Woman.”\n\nThe episode ends with quick relationship questions about family boundaries, loving someone from a distance, whether love is a feeling or a choice, and what standards the aunties refuse to lower again.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/VKV6i_k4xhP9fTAVv50u58YcxA666dzSoNvFRzlArrA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81NDkz/MGQxODdlODg0MjNk/ZTAxZDZhNzg0OTk4/NjZmOC5QTkc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
