#polyamorous culture

[polyamorousmood]

All the jokes are "polyamory so we can afford a house!" but the grim truth of the matter is, before you can even get to that you gotta spend extra money on gas to go see all your honeys 😔

Polyamorous culture is liking multiple people at once and just. Never actually getting any relationships because none of them feel the same about you lol

Polyamorous culture is my boyfriend listening to me rant about people I have crushes on

[bli-o]

y’all why is exclusivity and monogamy the default? why are open relationships something that needs to be discussed? why is it the expectation that, unless you’ve both agreed the other partner is “””allowed”””(weird as fuck possessiveness) to see other people, their body belongs to their partner? why is the assumption made that you owe your body exclusively to your partner upon entering a relationship? why is someone keeping their body as theirs and theirs only the exception instead of the rule?

I keep clunkily saying "first gf" and "second gf" when I'm talking about my gfs to people who don't know them both by name. It's awkward and I always end up making some joke about needing to come up with a better term but idk what that could be. I don't want to make it sound like one is more important than the other. Any ideas?

I know it’s pretty common in the poly community to assign nicknames to partners. A lot of people will default to first-letter-of-names when asking for advice or talking about situations (kind of like Reddit?). Other people will have themes for their polycule and come up with themed names (see @welcome-to-the-petting-zoo). Even outside of poly culture people come up with nicknames for their partners (like @safety-pin-punk refers to himself as Key and calls his boyfriend Mountain Boy). It’s a common and well-cherished practice both in the poly community and the queer community on a whole and also in the wider cishet community (calling partners just pet names in general).

Polyam Plural culture is having your system intertwined with your boyfriend's system through everyone dating each other.

incidentally: “polyamory is a social illness depriving me of the relationships I deserve” is a right-wing outrage that people feel overly comfortable joining in on because it’s not explicitly homophobia, transphobia, or misogyny (though it sure is an outrage manufactured for those purposes)

I think it bears saying to these people whenever they speak up about how they’re being Wronged by polyamorous people that nobody owes them a monogamous relationship. and maybe also that the actual reason nobody will get into a relationship with them is because they sound like fucking incels

sorry this isn’t a culture ask but do I count as a polyam aro if I’m aroace and have multiple queerplatonic partners?

Honestly, it’s whatever you feel comfortable with. If you want to call yourself polyam because of having multiple QPRs then great! If you don’t feel comfortable with that you don’t have to use the label.

Personally, 2/3 of my relationships are QPRs and that’s part of why I call myself polyam. The other part is because I am open to the idea of having another romantic partner. However, due to my flavor of aromanticism I feel like it’s fairly unlikely that I will have another romantic partner. But I still call myself polyamorous because that is what I consider myself.

Long story short, use whatever label you feel most comfortable with, it’s your identity after all!

[aro-culture-is]

poly aro-spec culture is feeling invalidated as an aro because you still have some level of romantic attraction or desire to date and are in relationships, and people see aros as entirely loveless or haters of romance. while thar may be true for some esp for us with romance repulsion, its not true for all and kinda hurts..

[ambiamorous-culture-is]

I love this blog sm! Just realized I’m ambi (if that’s the short word for it) and I hardly see any representation or anything for it. I mean—there was AHS: Hotel, but the throuple ended terribly 💀😭 it’s really nice to see more about it on here.

Hiiii, so sorry I took so long to respond! I completely agree, and that’s why this blog was started- while polyamory is becoming more talked about, very few people know of ambiamory, so it’s important to have at least some mention

[mystorii333]

Being polyamorous doesn’t always mean several partners, for me I want to be locked in with my masc presenting woman and a feminine presenting woman along side them being in a relationship and all three of us in a relationship also. There is no hierarchy in the dynamic I want.
