There *is* sex involved in polyamory, yes?
I seem to remember sex. It's just that so very many people think poly and swinging is the same thing. The root of poly (for me) is the freedom to be in love with more than one person at a time. Sex is just one part of love.
Sure, but sex is what makes it polyamory.
Sex isn't the defining factor of the relationships themselves, but sex is what makes the other relationships not monogamy.

no. It's not. Love is what makes it polyamory. Lots of people have sex without love. I have known celibate poly folk.

I don't see it that way. When I think of polyamory I think of three or more adults in a functioning relationship-whether or not they are currently having sex.
When I think of swingers, I think of at least one functioning relationship that includes sex with each other and other people/couples.
Daniel is napping on the sofa. He has a cat lump under the throw blanket. It's the cutest that snoring can be.
My Grandparents would be very freaked out to know that they were polyamorous through their fifty-some years of marriage.
Why, were they dating someone else at the time too?
I'm pretty sure Laga meant romantic love.
Also, pretty sure Toddson was speaking tongue-in-cheek.

Polyamory does not have to include sex.
That's what I meant. If I'm dating Bob, and then I meet Jim and have a connection with Jim, that Bob on some level shares and we all agree that we are in a romantic relationship we are polyamorous whether or not I've slept with Bob or Jim or they've slept with each other.
