The daytime British TV show "This Morning," on the ITV network, broadcast a 7-minute remote interview with Gracie X and her husband Oz (June 29). The interview is excellent. However, the show falsely titled the segment "Having Sex With Strangers Makes Me A Better Mum" and left that title onscreen below her for the entire seven minutes! She never said she has sex with strangers, though the title is phrased as a direct quote.I love Gracie and her excellent book. She and her husband Oz are very brave for being so transparent with their lives and their family. They do not deserve to be treated this way.
This kind of treatment can have a very chilling effect on poly people coming out and being public. It encourages shaming and in fact, in my opinion, it is slander.
Watch the video, tell me what you think. Is "Having Sex With Strangers Makes Me A Better Mum" really what Gracie and Oz are saying?
Of course it isn't!
