What is polyamory?
Polyamory or poly is the acceptance, desire and practice of having more than one intimate loving relationship at a time, where all parties have full knowledge and consent of everyone involved. Polyamory differs from monogamy in that there is respect for another’s wish to have further meaningful relationships and that that wish is accommodated alongside the existing relationship. Polyamory is a relational choice and philosophy, rather than an individual status at a given moment. It is fluid in its description, because there are many different shades of meaning which are covered under its umbrella.
