Hi LadyLove - and welcome to the Forum! We will look forward to hearing more of your story as it unfolds. We do have a number of experienced poly folks here, so please do not hesitate to post and thoughts and questions that you might have. Here's a link to a list that I put together of some...

Which brings up a thought that I was considering posting in the "oral sex" thread that is also going on. Opinions/thoughts on "squirting" (sometimes known as "female ejaculation"), especially as to what is actually coming out? It seems, if I am not mistaken, that the current...

I think this is the point - and well said. The OP has said that he has an interest in ethical multiple relationships - but that his wife does not. I would just suggest, as SeasonedpolyAgain mentions above, that could easily change. Watching your spouse have an additional relationship would...

The issue for us is that the pragmatic and philosophic are somewhat intertwined - due to such factors as family background, demographics (very conservative part of the country), and career. For example, we are fortunate in our careers to be able to do some genuinely good work for some of those...

I wrote: SeasonedolyAgain replied: I was actually just quoting/paraphrasing something that I had heard early on in my poly adventure - probably from one of Minx's podcasts. I don't remember the exact wording - it might have been more like "that one is not really polyamorous unless they can...

Here's a link to a list that I put together of some of the best poly web sites. http://www.polyamory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=108191 Books - The Ethical Slut is a classic poly text and the latest edition is somewhat more poly/relationship oriented than earlier versions - which did often...

Yep. I've heard it said that one is not really polyamorous unless they can find joy in the joy that their partners experience with their other partners (i.e., compersion). I would actually alter that to say that one is not really "practicing ethical polyamory"...... And, that is because...

Our daughter is under ten - and, due to her young age as well as a number of other considerations - both pragmatic and philosophical, we have decided it is best not to discuss the polyamorous nature of our relationship with her - and we are all careful to be appropriate around her. She is...

So apparently, some have decided that November 23 should be National Polyamory Day - anniversary of a pro poly court ruling in Canada. :) https://polyinthemedia.blogspot.com/2019/11/polyamory-day-is-coming-up-and-why.html

Hi Dingedheart - Ben is still married - he and his wife had an open/DADT marriage already in place when we opened our marriage so Becky and Ben could pursue their relationship. Claims of a DADT marriage are always suspect since by their very nature they can be difficult to verify - and the...

Kylan - thanks for going a bit further into your story. Kudos for supporting your wife on her desire to explore a relationship with a woman. So if I'm hearing you right - you are not necessarily looking for an FMF 3some with a hot bi-babe - but just want to share and enjoy your wife's...

Welcome to the Forum! Based on the text of your post, it looks like the male half of your partnership is posting. If you decide to join in the conversation, please include your name (real or fictional)- so we can know who we are talking to. Our guidelines state that each individual should...

Welcome to the Forum! As Kevin pointed out, there is a dating section at the bottom of the main page, but we are really more of a discussion forum and you will likely have better dating results on Okcupid. You may also want to investigate any local poly groups and or poly FB groups for your...

Hi Jennifer - and welcome to the Forum! It sounds like you have a mature perspective on polyamory and are off to a good start on this journey. We will look forward to hearing more of your story as it unfolds. Please do hesitate to post any specific questions and thoughts that you may have...

Hi MR603 and welcome to the Forum! We will look forward to hearing your story as it develops. We have a good number of experienced poly folks here on the forum so please feel free to post any questions and thoughts that you may have. There are several good books available on the various...

Same here - I don't follow current pop culture at all, so it was not surprising to me that I wasn't familiar with anyone of their list. However, I do recall that a somewhat "bigger" celebrity - Nico Tortorella - recently came out as poly. I don't know who he is either, but saw some some...

I saw a link to this on my FB page and thought I would share it as I suspect it reflects a gradually growing public awareness and acceptance of CNM and poly. Although personally I share Robert Heinlein's view of celebrity opinions: "The United States has become a place where entertainers and...

Hi Buddy - and welcome to the Forum! Your account really sounds more like a hotwife scenario than poly. When a married couple transitions to poly, the most common situation is that both date independently. Or, if you prefer to remain mono but agree for your wife to be actively poly, then she...

Hi Matt, and welcome to the Forum! We have a number of experienced poly folks here who are generally friendly and helpful so please do not hesitate to post any specific questions and thoughts that you may have. There are a number of good books available on the various aspects of poly but...

I also completed your survey. As Kevin noted, however, there was no way to actually "sign" the form. Feel me to private message me as well using the forum messaging system. My "story" is in the signature link below. Good luck with your research project! Al
