    Why do you use the online name that you use?

    I guess its because I thought of the image from Doctor Who. I always loved clever mechanical things even as a child so what could be more interesting or intricate than a pocketwatch.

    My Poly Social Network

    Just Signed up :) p.s. Think its perfectly appropriate to keep the site content non-adult. At least until a filter system is in place.

    Polys not jealous?

    Usually when I experience jealousy I see it as more of a collection of emotions than as a single one. Sometimes my partner will be talking on a subject with somone that I cant contribute and I feel the dim one in the room. Or simply if Im at a loose end when my partner is spending her time...

    Poly and the Military

    Within the British military I havent heard of there being any mention. On an application at least Ive only seen any questions on whether there are any family members dependent on you. With sexuality at least it is considered an irrelevance :) One question I will ask is how military families...

    Good evening/nos da

    Well surprisingly open I'd find. If you take polyamory to mean non-manogamous relationships some of which are at least more than casual/one night stand you still have a wide range of subsets to choose from.

    Good evening/nos da

    Happy to welcome a fellow taff. The good thing about polyamory that it is a very wide thing so you can be any "type" of polyamorist you want.

    Polyamory's Image Problem

    I'm not sure, but it seems in the UK polyamory is not so visible and not so visibly "other." It was only when I looked it up, I went, "I can't be poly, I don't dye my hair like that." I guess the people who will be the most open and identifiable as poly will be the most counter to the culture...

    Polyamory's Image Problem

    I am inclined to agree. Who controls the media varies wildly from country to country. In Britain the BBC is dominant and has quite liberal matter-of-fact tendencies. Suffice to say, even with more conservative groups present, Fox News doesn't exist here.

    Labels -- I HATE them! Advice?

    useful This thread has been quite useful. Ive searched about a bit and find the same problems trying to think of ways to broach the subject to friends/those I may be interested in. Thanks, anything is always useful ^^

    Trying to be sensitive to and understand my (probably) monogamous partner's needs

    Unplug Hi. I'm completely new here, so you may think, "Aaand who's this guy?" I very much agree with Penny. In my relationship, we agreed to allowing purely sexual relations, as it was a LDR, before moving on to most recently admitting we were fine with having proper relationships, just...
