Do you call yourself polyamorous or do you use another label?

Hatley- This discussion falls under the interest titled "Polyamorous Relationships" and is geared to those who live a polyamorous lifestyle as not all of us live a monogamous lifestyle. That said, no, I did not already have this discussion. We discussed, in the said interest, Poly sitcoms/drama, Free Love , Common Poly misnomers, and the definition of polyamorous. This discussion is focusing on those who may use other terms within the polyamorous lifestyle. Those terms may range from ethical non-monogamy as I already defined and discussed in my original post, to polyfidelity. There are many “labels” or “terms” within the poly lifestyle that one might use to explain their lifestyle choice. It is no different than other umbrella terms such as Pagan, Christian, or so forth. Those terms are very broad and encompass a great deal of other labels that one might use for one’s own belief. That is why I brought this discussion up here for other people who are polyamorous. Some of us do not use polyamorous or polyamory because it is so often confused with polygamy. Namaste-Anora

Rogue- Thanks for sharing, and I as I stated before I was hoping to see more of our poly friends on Mylot respond with what they feel about the labels as it applies to their life. Many that I know are going with ethical non-monogamy or sustainable polyamory, but some do still use polyamorous because they feel it is appropriate. I find that for myself when I say "polyamory" people automatically assume I mean polygamy. Namaste-Anora
