Sexologist Alexa Andre (@sexwithalexa) sits down with NYC-based photographer, ethical slut, and reformed cheater Matthew Kayman for an honest, reflective, and hilarious conversation about evolving from messy dating patterns to intentional, kink-informed, and transparent relationships.
We unpack his shift from monogamy to polyamory, navigating play parties, unlearning toxic masculinity, and figuring out how to explore power dynamics while remaining ethical and emotionally available.
✨ In this episode, we talk about:
How Matthew realized he wasn’t dating ethically—and what changed that
His transition into ethical non-monogamy and what it taught him about himself
Tips for flirting, FaceTime pre-dates, and dating apps that don’t suck
Power dynamics in dating, and how kink helped him explore both dom & sub roles
Group sex, queer curiosity, and learning how to communicate mid-orgy
Slutty shame, hot guy privilege, and navigating softness in hookup culture
Why it’s not just about consent, but context and care
Lessons from play parties, switching, and setting expectations with new partners
This is an episode about dating better—not perfectly, but with curiosity, compassion, and accountability.
