Forgotten/ignored facts about polyamory

choose-your-muse:

  • It is not cheating, so long as your partners are aware.
  • We don’t want to fuck everyone
  • We aren’t greedy
  • Not everyone in a relationship is dating everyone else. (ie, I can have a boyfriend, and a girlfriend, and neither of them is required to date the other)
  • Poly refers to Polynesia, not polyamory, and the people of Polynesia have been trying to reclaim it. The correct shortened term is ‘polya’ or ‘polyam’
  • It’s not the same thing as polysexual
