You don't need to be associated with a religion to practice polygamy nor do you need to do it for religious reasons. Any 3 or more people of legal age can practice polygamy and in any combination of genders.
Polygamy is really a type of polyamory, by definition. Most people don't consider this much because they tend to associate polygamy with Mormonism or other religions when when really polygamy still involves multiple love/sexual relationships (marriage).
continuing my post below.. Imagine the woman below, sitting down with her boyfriend and husband and saying "I love you both, for different reasons, and while I want a steady thing with you (the husband),so we have financial stability and a place to have our children, I also love him (boyfriend), and want to still see him" Just imagine the hubby agreeing, and saying "We'll give you a wedding night to remember!". But instead, thanks to society, we have a nearly suicidle girl.
A good friend told me her buddy just tried to commit suicide, because she was fooling around with another guy while engaged. Been married 10 weeks now, and she stopped the fooling around. But her husband found a text on her phone from the boyfriend, freaked, and has moved out. of course, the lying and deception is the hurtful part. Now, what a shame that is. Wouldnt it have been better, if the husband knew all that was going on? Better for everyone?
@mattydigs Yes, but you also have to love yourself, and in reality, Love is the preactice on showing good will to someone and yourself in the same in a truthful manner.
Yeah... polyamory and sex are totally different things. amor means love, not sex. But I know, in our culture where polyamory is so taboo, "multiple partners" almost invariably means multiple sex partners.
Just one thing, it would be nice if you do not start from BDSM and sex parties and then move on to polyamory. It gives the false impression of people new to polyamorie that It is all about sex and group sex and BDSM while in reality it is not.
I always end up in this wrong association of polyamory=BDSM and sex when I tell someone that I am polyamorous. It would really help if this association would not be there in coming out being polyamorous.
It's not about being slutty, eh? Doubt that. Look at the woman in this video for example. She looks like she's fucked more people than most full-fledged prostitutes.
@obaeyens As someone who *is* into BDSM, I heartily agree! I take great care to separate the two concepts & make sure people understand that they are not automatically associated and you don't have to be into one to be into the other. I usually do not bring up kink at all when I talk publicly about poly & I make sure to emphasize that group sex is also not the norm
@obaeyens I totally agree. I am into D/s but not Poly. Not that I am against it I just am not in a relationship that poly would work. People confuse poly with sex..instead of d/s, swinging, sex are separate entities and the same thing entwined.

ethical non-monogamy and BDSM are two different things that can just happen to over lap but I don't think they go hand in hand.

well put. a lot of polyamorous groups lead relatively "conservative" lifestyles compared to what is being showcased here.

Appeareances are decieving. And most polyamoric people only have 1 additional stable partner for many years and never have one night stands.
