    America

    Having been to both, I often describe London to fellow Americans as a mix between New York and Washington DC. London is huge like New York...and has all the entertainment, business, financial stuff. But it's also a little like Washington in that it has fewer skyscrapers, lots of government...

    "Stop me if you've heard this one" - clichés we've heard from non-polys

    fun topic "You're just greedy and oversexed!" My reply: We're gay men...if all you want is just more sex, it's easier if you stay single! :p "I can't even get one man let alone two!" My reply: Sounds like your problem, not mine. :rolleyes: "This isn't some kinda kinky Mormon thing is...

    A simple question...Or is it?

    Personally, we're barely at the two-year mark...though there was some off-and-on times particularly at the beginning. We're a triad now but the first half of it we were more of a vee. I've met others that have been together much longer. I believe the local poly group has a FMF triad who's...

    When 2 of Triad (or more) have a conflict

    Yes, it does make sense. :) Thank you. It's that balance that I just need to work harder on. Be a "resource" should they suggest that they'd like one...but otherwise, learn not to stick my nose in their business.

    Mirror Mirror

    Oh many of us here know exactly what you're talking about! I've read some say that the Polyamory community is sorta where the gay rights movement was thirty or so years ago----you get some limited acceptance here and there from the more liberal-minded, and then everyone else acts like it's some...

    When 2 of Triad (or more) have a conflict

    Thanks for the input everyone. Gives me some good insight. It's a struggle to remain out of it, I'll tell ya. For one, if they're miserable, I usually am too. Secondly, I tend to be the nurturer type of the group....M teases me and calls me "Mom"...Grrrr. :rolleyes: So it is definitely...

    America

    Yup. But then there's folks like us, where the only "guns" you'll find are Nail guns....Staple Guns....Glue guns....Heat guns.....Rivet Guns... :D ("M" likes to think he's Home Depot's best customer on earth! ;) )

    When 2 of Triad (or more) have a conflict

    My two partners are both a tad stubborn from time to time, and have hot tempers. As you can imagine, there are arguments and fights. No huge thing...just typical in come pairings, except they take a bit of time to kiss & make up. For those in similar situations, what's the good role of a...

    America

    Sigh. Unfortunately many in the general public in the US are so ignorant about basic geography it's disgusting. Even many who are supposedly educated, still have big gaps in world geography knowledge. (To be fair though, I blame the public education system...in many states, geography is an...

    America

    Sadly, many stereotypes have a basis from truth. :o With Americans, there's no one culture really any more. It's a big country and there's regional differences for starters. But also even within those smaller regions, there are other divides. I'm from North Carolina and I often joke there...

    Triad... ????

    Lots of grey area between a vee and a triad We call ourselves a triad, and for all practical purposes we are one. But we definitely started as a vee, and even to this day, we still have vee-like patterns here and there. For example, the one who was our hinge (M) is still the one who sleeps in...

    Guys who shave... down there

    LOL! :D Yeah, I'm not into bald cats, but I don't like Persians, either. In other words, there's a middle ground, guys!

    Glossary and Definitions

    Throuple: slang term for triad; used especially by gay men who aren't familiar with polyamorous community terms like triad or vee (When we say triad, most guys look at us confused. When we say throuple, they are like, "Oh, okay!")

    fluid bonding/bareback

    There's a Hep A and B vaccines now, so they can be easily avoided, thankfully. Unfortunately the Hep C one probably won't come until 2018 at the earliest.

    Poly-themed Movies

    Trying to find one.... Several months ago, I was aimlessly surfing the net and saw a mention of a movie about a gay-male triad. I think it said it was French with English subtitles. I wrote the title down and of course lost it! :mad: Does it ring a bell to anyone? It looked pretty new (less...

    Sex and its status

    Well said! Sex within my triad is just as "sacred" as any monogamous couple's sex out there. We're in love, we're faithful, we don't cheat. The only difference is the number of people involved. That's it.
