I don't believe it was a choice I made. However, that doesn't mean I think I was necessarily born with it. There are many things you don't choose that aren't necessarily genetic either.

It's about tantric sex. Not my thing. Doesn't really seem pertinent here, except that polyamory is one of the 4 relationship types they mention.

I think it's a bit different in that OPPs mean "I'm the only man (or woman) you can date/have sex with, but you can date/have sex with as many people of the other sex as you want" while the OP here is specifically talking about one of each, unless I'm misunderstanding it completely. For people...

I don't find boyfriend juvenile (I never had one in high school so to me it's still an adult thing) but I hear it with the context of uncommitted. I'm just to used to people saying their wife/husband if they've been together 2 years or more (whether they plan to get married or not) so I really...

The two of you can be polyfidelitous without everyone in the relationship needing to be. The relationship isn't if not everyone is, though. Similarly, if the BF is mono, for instance (it's just an example), that doesn't make the whole relationship mono. But he doesn't stop being mono because...

Mitterrand wasn't in a triad. Actually, I seem to recall his wife didn't even meet his girlfriend until he was either dying or dead, I can't remember which (and at that point his daughter from the girlfriend was already an adult). The wife knew, as did many people, but it was, for one thing, a...

Still more guys than I've had :P I haven't had much luck either, but I'm picky. I take a while to be willing to give someone a try, and the few I have asked in the past few years have all said no. My husband (boyfriend at the time) had more "luck" from a certain point of view, in that he had...

I understand that "honesty" as a general statement might seem like a useless rule (although it really depends what you mean by rule. If you mean principles you live by, then it's a great one) but more specific things like "I would like to know you're interested in someone before you act on it"...

I have to agree with that. Just because you're submissive to your dom doesn't mean complete strangers have any right to be dominant towards you. They're your equal and your dom's equal at the same time, because there are no agreed BDSM dynamics at play when it's random people, or even friends...

I find that interesting. I wouldn't want the kids not to know the relationship I have with their dad. I don't think people generally think of their mothers or stepmothers as "That woman who sleeps with my dad." They do know the person has a relationship with their father, and they do know, I...

My husband's family (his mother) knew but she died this year. My family... I'm not sure. I barely ever talk to them and never told them directly but never hid it either, and I'm out on Facebook and all. So they might know, they might not, and I don't really care either way.

I asked my husband at the time to open our marriage and be poly back when I had absolutely nobody in mind. It was actually important to me to do it when there was nobody else in the picture, so that he didn't think it was just because of "that guy." Plus I doubted he would be fine with it if I...

Miam miam is French for yum yum. I'm not sure if maybe the guys if from that part of Texas that is creole-influenced, and using some French terms, maybe? Or maybe he (or his family) is from a French-speaking country originally? There is also the option that it's not just a French thing, but it's...

It really depends on the person. If we have a connection and I trust them, messaging outside of the website (emails or skype) could happen the same day. Meeting in person will also depend on the type of meeting. Meeting one-on-one with nobody else? That would take a while. But if we have...

I believe that girlfriend and boyfriend originally were used for children who had a "special friend". They were kinda like dating but too young to really do much than give each other a peck on the cheek and maybe talk about how they'd marry someday. Since a lot of children kind of segregate...

I'm glad you made a choice you're happy with! I find the main problem with IUD is that so few doctors are trained putting them on. The one I got is specifically meant for women who have never had children so it's smaller, but I had to research it myself and be the one to tell my gynecologist...

If I may ask, do you mean things like zoos, or are you also against people caring for cats, dogs, etc? Or are you fine with people having pets provided they're not caged? For instance, I currently have 3 cats. However they come and go as they please as we have several pet doors. One of them...

It's more the other way around. I'm trying to explain that despite engaging in BDSM activity, and being totally ok with other people doing the same thing (intellectually), I'm uncomfortable watching people as I can't really differentiate when I'm not part of the scene. So I'm not saying: "oh...

I have not used them but do know about them. Filling them with spermicide is highly recommended to increase their efficiency, as they aren't the most efficient thing ever. I actually haven't heard of people using diaphragms without spermicides. You can put one in place before you have sex, but...
