- New Community: !polyamory@kbin.run
I looked for polyamory communities on the fediverse, this morning. Somehow missed your Polyamory Alberta group, but somehow another user took the initiative and made !polyamory@kbin.run. So we’re off and running, pun intended. Blessings on our communities!

Today, I published an essay on two recent books: Fifty Years of #Polyamory in America, by Glen W. Olson and Terry Lee Brussel-Rogers, and Polyamorous Elders, by therapist and nurse Kathy Labriola.
I liked both these books, though I think #Polyamorous #Elders is the one we all need to read. It is FASCINATING to read dozens of case histories of polyamorous people entering and navigating their last chapters.

- S.A. Wilson writes about changing economic condition related to polyamorous relationships
@sawauthor@home.social 🔗
It's been nearly six months since I published a piece on @medium.me.dm about how social and legal acceptance of polyamorous relationships taking place between consenting adults could potentially change the nature of our economic and social institutions. It still gets new reads everyday, so thought I'd re-share here for those interested. I encourage you to read and share your take: https://medium.com/@swilson4995/polyamory-and-possibility-d588bebbd1ba #polyamory #medium #future #economics

Polyfidelity: A "closed" polyamorous relationship.
It's important to remember that #polyamory doesn't equal being sexually open. Closed, sexually exclusive polyamorous relationships exist and are perfectly valid.
Polyfidelity is very similar to what many people think of as "monogamy" because they think polyamory has to revolve around casual sex.
But just because you love multiple people doesn't mean you necessarily need to be constantly exploring with people outside what you already have.

A wonderful part of #polyamory is that not everyone you date needs to fulfil all your needs. Or even a lot of them.
You can have a partner who only gives you one thing you need in life. As long as that is important to you, you don't have to worry about the fact they will never be your "everything".
- What terms do you use for your relationship styles?
I've recently come across some new terms and I'd love to hear from you folks about your different labels and relationship styles.
I've heard "garden party poly" and "sustained, non-escalating poly".

Is polyamory political? Are relationships in general political? The answer is yes, which is why choosing to be polyamorous can be a political act.
