Why is polyamory getting a big push?

It’s not “popular” and it’s not getting a “big push” from “mainstream” anything.

You’re wrong.

Because people can't just behave how they want anymore. Now they have to also turn it into an IDENTITY and then promote it. Are you asexual or sex-indifferent? Are you demisexual? Monosexual? Sapiosexual? Enough already.

Polyamory is the best hope for uggos to reproduce.

You're talking about clients of a therapist, that doesn't really tell you anything about his life.


He's a sex therapist. The chances of him being monogamous are zero.


Ok…and so? How does this affect your kid?

I wouldn’t want my kid exposed to other partners, it’s too weird and confusing. But I wouldn’t expect that to happen when my kid is just on a play date with another kid.

Look, a sketchy pedo comes in all stripes. In fact, I would expect it to be less likely from a non-monogamous sex therapist because that person already has a fulfilling sex life and isn’t bound by shame. Pedos are more likely to be the Super Dads, the sports coaches, the religious types who are good at hiding who they are.


Until pedo becomes just another source of diversity.

All research shows that deviance is associated with other deviance.


Point us to just one example of this research.

Educate us. Thanks.

They have 430,000 responses. That is pretty robust research, generally speaking.

This is a long webpage. Can you point us to where nonmonogamy and harming children are connected?

Because a book just came out about it and is getting publicity. That’s it. That’s the whole story. The book is “More” by Molly Roden Winter and is already a bestseller due to the excellent marketing campaign. Don’t worry…the world isn’t ending.

Polygamy is a lot worse & more potential for abuse than polyamory. Polygamy traditionally conferred a degree of ownership over the women, with very limited options for the women who needed to leave the relationship.

Polyamory is lower stakes and more consensual.


I think so too but women not having legal spousal rights is also a form of abuse. I guess women can get prenup for right to divorce, spousal support, alimony etc. That being said, some partner/partners take advantage of others, no matter its polyamory and polygamy, both are unacceptable to me. That's just not in human nature, someone would be unhappy.



It’s not human nature for women. Men, on the other hand, love it.

I actually know probably a disproportionate number of people who claim to be polyamorous. I have *never* seen it work, and in fact it seems to create a lot of drama and consternation despite their best intentions.

It’s not practical. Someone always gets upset.

Because dating has changed over the past ten years. It's becoming increasingly difficult for people who are interested in pursuing a monogamous relationship with someone they care about and who reciprocates those feelings and is on the same page - a long term, happy, equal, faithful relationship.

Instead, people's feelings quickly get hurt so they become much more protective and jaded. The apps condition the mind to think there's always something better one swipe away. If you are in active dating mode, you may have another three dates later in the week so it's difficult to focus or invest in the moment.

So people invent different categories to make themselves feel good about themselves. Polyamorous being the latest. Absolutely no is deeply happy in their soul with that kind of arrangement. It's something you do when you are 23. But nearly everyone wants love and partnership. And if you are polyamorous at 32, you are probably unhappy. It's not the human condition to fall for someone and know they are sleeping with others. Very few can accept that emotionally.

Part of a coordinated attack on the traditional nuclear family. Expect it to get worse, thanks to the left’s willing accomplices in academia and the media.

“Upset?”

Because it's all over the dating apps. So many people who say they are polyamory in their profiles.

I have a different take.

I think it’s because many heterosexual women want to be in a relationship but many men are useless in being actual equal partners. I’d love to have a wife and still sleep with a man. Sounds like it would be a more equal division of labor.

I’m single and have considered dating a couple or a poly man because the single
Men I know deserve to be single (in their 40s). Having both a competent helper and a
Competent lover sounds convenient.

Omg even the WSJ is getting into the action. When bankers go poly, you know it’s jumped the shark 😭
