    Name This Animal

    I think at least part of it is societal. First, bisexual (or lesbian) women are generally more accepted than bisexual (or gay) men. Second, many straight women would probably not marry a bisexual man due to that very reason. It's a prejudice and a stigma and not right or fair...but there you...

    I'd say it's polyamory.

    New to Poly Amory - Experiences, Thoughts, Feelings and Questions

    I haven't been trying to psychoanalyze you or tear you down or prove you wrong. I have been trying to understand what you are talking about and how you got there. And to do that, I present my feelings and ask you questions. Yet you do not really respond to what is said coherently, nor answer...

    Hi...new here

    I often wonder the same, even about myself. And I AM poly. Can I go with all of the above?

    "Coming out" as Polyamorous.

    Weird to me that anyone would question a friend's "interest" in their family. But if you're taking this well, then so be it. You two are stronger and more tolerant than I. I will humbly get off my soap box now. :)

    Broken agreement

    Ouch. I don't even have the words. I'd be hurt, angry, sad. Beyond that, I don't know. I guess I would have to decide if the trust could be rebuilt. And, if it could, keep the relationship monogamous until it was. I'm so sorry you're hurting. But Mono is probably right. This is something you'll...

    Personal Summaries

    You can call me by XYZ123 (my son made up the name if anyone ever wondered) or by C, as I am not yet willing to totally expose myself. I am 30 years old, about 5'4", blond and hazel eyed. I live in NYC with my husband N, our amazingly intelligent and emotional 5-year-old son (we have no idea...

    "Coming out" as Polyamorous.

    It isn't the CONCERN for the son that got to me. I can understand that. And I don't blame them for concerns. It was the concern of sexual abuse specifically. Why would they jump to something like that? It's like asking if every friend I bring into my life is really out to touch my son. Or every...

    Do I look fat to you?

    I have nice legs and skirts. And I DEFINITELY have a belly and large round boobs at the moment! Plus, they're functional and you'll never have to search for coffee creamer. Can I get your number? lol. ;) Can't do the heels now though, but if you give me a few months... haha

    Redpepper needing some support

    I don't even know what to say having read this. I am so sorry, not because they have concerns, but because they were so hurtful in dealing with them. Mono was fine until they were told he was more than a friend and now he is demonized and your parents cannot spend time with your family because...

    "Coming out" as Polyamorous.

    Wow. Some of those questions are actually quite thought provoking-and some are downright insulting and hurtful. Your son being sexually abused? I think that would get me so angry. Childhood sexual abuse does not happen because of poly. It happens because someone is a sexual abuser! As far as...

    Pitfalls and advantages of polyamory

    Oh my! If I were just starting a relationship and the woman (or the man in my single days) began asking about children and all from day 1, I'd run the other way! It's nice that you want to cover all the bases up front, but that's really premature. Slow down, take a breath, and let things begin...

    New to Poly Amory - Experiences, Thoughts, Feelings and Questions

    This. OneSoul, I have a child and have worked with young children half of my life, and have a degree in Developmental psych. While I agree with you that most children DO have love, joy, and peace within them that is not ALL they have. They have anger, fear, frustration, sadness. Or at least the...

    Once Bitten, Twice Shy?

    It was MY friend. A grown woman. And the "That's stupid" was geared towards calling it a "firehose", not the scratching. I do tell him not to touch himself in public. Should have been more clear. lol

    Once Bitten, Twice Shy?

    My son once told me his penis was sweaty and itched when I asked why he was touching it. A friend overheard and told him "Don't touch that! And don't say penis! Call it your firehose and only scratch it in the bathroom!" To which my son responded "That's stupid". And I responded "What he said"...

    Once Bitten, Twice Shy?

    I know why SHE feels that way. She's so obviously bisexual to EVERYONE but HERSELF. The woman used to creep into my bed naked and drunk when we were teens, coerce people to dare her into kissing other girls to show "how crazy" she was, ask to shower with me "to save hot water", and comment on...

    Random Chitchat

    Thank you guys. Now I truly feel silly! lol I guess what I was trying to get at is I'd like to be seen as just ME in a first impression. Not this big, waddling, sweaty woman with heartburn. Though I guess that is ME at the moment. lol I have to write a summary. I keep meaning to get to it but...
