#i am once again yelling from the rooftops that polyamory isn't just monogamy with more people

small but consistent pet peeve is the phrase "poly couple"
because....... unless you're talking about 2 people specifically, it's not a couple
2 people in a couple can be polyam/in an open relationship and therefore a "poly couple," and i always assume that's what people are talking about, but it seems most of the time they're talking about three or more people in a polycule
which is not a couple
it's a triad+ (quad, polycule, constellation, etc etc)
#partially me being pedantic#but mostly bc something something amatonormativity#why are we using narrow monogamous terminology to describe a 3+ person arrangement#i'm not gonna police anyone's language it jst annoys me bc it doesn't make sense to me#i am once again yelling from the rooftops that polyamory isn't just monogamy with more people#ness talks
