Noise, I agree with you 100%. But the definition of a polyamorus relationship that has been given seems to make a lot of people who don't orient themselves a poly, poly.
How if they don't consider themselves oriented that way?
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Unless they're Willow. (Sorry, still a bit of a sore topic for this bi?/gay? girl.)
She says she's a lesbian, Imma believe her.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Good point.
I have nothing to back to myself up with because you have a good point.
I'ma sit back here and watch your good point.

The point being that if I'm not poly, then those relationships aren't poly. If I'm not homosexual and I have close friendships with homosexual men, that doesn't make them homosexual relationships.
eta looks like I just had a x-post with DJ.

Not to downplay my very good point, but there are closeted people who wouldn't consider themselves gay, but I do-or at least bi.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Yeah, me too. There was lots of discussions at the time of her "Gay now" declaration about how she was "actually bi." Bugged.

Orientation wasn't part of the initial definition.

That's the reason I was bringing it up, I consider it a pretty important part of the definition.

I pretty much just hate labels. I was "straight" in the past, then "bi" when started messing with girls, and now in a long-term gay relationship. So what does that make me? Bi? Gay? Frankly, I don't care.

Yeah, the Senator Craig thing.
That's the problem with respecting self-definition -- sometimes people do it stupidly and annoy the crap out of you.
