Non-monogamy is more about connecting with other people emotionally and romantically than about sex in general.

There’s not enough polyamorous memes to show other polyamorous people so here’s one (obligatory disclaimer that this is based on my own experiences and you don’t need to fully relate to it to be polyamorous)

Political Non-Monogamy Pride Flag

Political nonmonogamy - PNM (in Portuguese: não monogamia política - NMP): the articulation of an anti-monogamism (or anti-monogamy) linked to the construction of a life project and sociopolitical identity guided by a collective and emancipatory thought of non-monogamy.

This concept is similar to relationship anarchy (RA), but not to be confused with ethical non-monogamy (ENM).

I thought I was demisexual for a bit but realized I’m rediculously sapiosexual, there doesn’t have to be an emotional connection, but if you don’t stimulate my mind it’s game over.

Am I really only willing to be in relationships with ppl who recognize my autonomy and I get to "do whatever I want"? YES!

I don't wanna be with ppl who don't want me to do things. Bc usually it goes from "your online work is ok but not the in person" to "why don't I just work so much that you don't have to?" to "why don't you ever contribute?" and I am not interested in that bullshit anymore.

If they think they can bargain with me about my work, how I survive as a disabled person? They'll think they can change me on everything else they don't like or are uncomfortable with. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt and the trauma!

Relationship Skills 101: How Not To Ask a Girl to Date Your Partner

I've been on the Lex app for a bit and one of the worst interactions I've had was this and it's unsavory folks like this who make me wary of being apart of nonmonogamous relationships:

This person, let's call them Lu, basically treated me like a fun trinket to take home to their partner to make her happy.

At no point did Lu consider my feelings on a potential relationship between me and their partner. Just gushed about their sweetheart, what they felt their lover's needs were, and how desperate they are to please her. At no point were my feelings considered. Of course not, because I'm just "a girl" to be sent in to spice up someone else's life with my "feminine attention."

It would be one thing if Lu had told their partner about me and had her contact me directly to explain her interest in me herself. However, Lu's role as self-serving, simpish recruiter only resulted in engagement with me in the most objectifying, dehumanizing way possible. Lu wants their partner "to be happy and have everything she wants," but showing me basic care for my personhood was too much for them to muster apparently. In that moment, I had wanted to express how awful Lu's recruitment strategy was, that "yeah, dude you not only come off as weird, you also totally make me feel like I'm nothing but a cutesy gift for your partner and you should never try this nonsense with anyone in the future!" But I didn't want to fight about it, so I kept it short and blocked the scumbag for good measure. Honestly, I have some doubts about whether what Lu was saying was true. For all I know, their “Filipino enby lesbian” partner may not exist, and they were straight up trying to catfish me. I simply don’t know; all I can do is judge this encounter at face value.

I'm not a relationship expert, but I do know that direct communication and compassion are key. You should be perceptive about the needs and wants of the person you want to get to know better, and you should speak with them directly and as truthfully yet compassionately as possible. None of that was done here and it shows that someone like Lu lacks that baseline sense of sociability. Instead, Lu is only concerned with impressing and very likely objectifying their own girlfriend, whose love life they seem to want to micromanage to some extent. Moral of the story is, avoid treating people like presents, prizes to be won, and gifts solely to be used to satisfy others' desires.

For an open relationship to be successful, there should be a high level of self-awareness and emotional maturity. Only then will the people involved in it will be able to navigate their feelings and address them constructively.

She would still love you if she had other partners, sure, but would she still love you if you were a worm? And post--

Amorous Flag

Amorous or gamous (noun: amory; gamy): an identity indicating that an individual experiences a relationship orientation; the reverse counterpart to nonamorous.

Black and white comes from monoamorous/monogamous flag (plus ambiamorous); red, yellow, and blue colors from polyamorous flag (plus ambiamorous), pink and cyan from non-monogamous flag.

Note this is to be illustrative of a conformant term. Useful for questioning people.

Um…

some couple just approached us on fetlife and want us to eventually move in with them so they can financially support and date us. The woman also said she may want to have my primary partner’s child.

I’m not monogamous, but I’m beginning to feel I may believe in reproductive fidelity because the idea of that offended me deeply. We have been building a life together and haven’t had our own kids yet. I would at least insist we have kids first before he branches out, but this woman is older and on a timeline…just…I know it’s hierarchy…but ain’t no way. Kids are a HUGE commitment and not just some willynilly decision that this lady and her hiss and are talking like it is. I think she just wants a mixed race child tbh…

keep in mind we haven’t even MET these people yet and only started talking to this older couple days ago. I don’t romantically connect to people easily. We mainly are swingers/open relationship and not polyamory (but open to it). It took 7 years of slutting around before I got with my partner. I’m very picky. They seem to assume we wanna jump into a relationship. And also that they can create a closed relationship with us (he hates condoms apparently) when we are both very popular in the swinger scene right now.

like nah I don’t know anything about either of you yet. Chill. Let’s take things slow. I view them talking about us moving in as they’re younger human sex toys when they don’t know us yet to be a massive red flag, but we agreed to hookup in a few weeks to at least test sexual compatibility. We aren’t committing though.

#Reproductive fidelity #Polyamory #Relationship hierarchy #Hierarchical polyamory #Nonmonogamy #nonmonogamous #swingers #open relationships #ethical nonmonogamy #Uhauling #Moving too fast #Older swingers #I feel weird but my primary is at least amused so we may just see what is up #Queencolondarkwing #Swinging adventures

For people that are new to non-monogamy and polyamory, sometimes you might experience guilt about things that you really don't need to be experiencing guilt about.#polyamorous

It’s National Coming Out Day here in the USA. Not much new to report here; still nonmonogamous, still demisexual, still very ambivalent about masculinity, still getting used to claiming the label of queer.

I use I/me and you/your pronouns, leaving the third person pronoun decisions to those who are speaking about me. It’s not that I don’t care which you use for me — I’m genuinely curious about your choices and why you make them — but they’re a tool for y’all to not have to repeat my name over and over, and I’m generally not in that conversation.

I’ve never felt an attraction to a cis man, but have been in relationships with partners and felt attractions to those of other sex and gender expressions. I guess that makes me either bisexual or polysexual, but both of those identities’ flags are garbage. No judgment on anyone’s identities, but as a vexilloflexible person I just can’t bring myself to fly those. So I’ll stick with the demi flag, which is demonstrably the best of the mainstream queer flags in terms of identifiability and functionality.

Deciding what polyamory means to you can be a long, hard process.

We might have an idea of what we want at the start of our journey, but a large part of that journey will be learning all the things we didn't know going in.

And while this is exciting, it can also be overwhelming if you're not prepared.

The good thing about this process is we might discover things we never even imagined might be possible.

The downside is discovering that what we thought we wanted doesn't work for us or our existing relationship.

Sometimes things work out. Sometimes they don't. But in the end, honestly always works best.
