Hi, I’m Ginger, a poly person who is producing a new docu-series about larger size polycules. I love being polyamorous and want to showcase the wonderful positive aspects of poly life. I deeply believe in community and how that is being reclaimed through polyamorous relationships.

We are looking for polycules with 10+ people, but if you are 8 or 9, submit anyway. You can live anywhere, looking for good hearted people, in healthy polycules. If interested please slide in my dms. Thank you, friends! 💕
 
Only three people in my polycule, and we are closeted anyway. I do hope you have success in producing your show.
 
Good luck finding 10+ people all out enough to be happy to be in the media. There's always someone we don't want knowing.

Why, though? That seems a bit sensationalistic. With larger networks, the further out you go, the less likely it is various metamours even know each other, much less hang out, party, play or live together. It's like an extended family. You may not know your mother's cousin's daughter's stepchild's cat.
 
It might be useful to define what you mean by "polycule" in this context. Are you looking for 10+ people that are all, to some degree, in relationships with each other — like a huge group relationship of some sort?

Because if I'm dating Ben, and Ben is dating Claire and Dover, and Dover is dating Eagle, and Eagle is dating Famke and Gerard, and Famke is dating Hildred, and Gerard is dating Ione, and Hildred is dating Jericho... that's a "polycule" of 10 people, but very few of them have anything to do with each other; they might not even all have ever met.

Great question, thanks. Not looking for everyone to be in relationship, some people will be metamours. So your polycule example would be exactly what im looking for, even if some metamours don’t interact that ok. If y’all are interested lmk! Thanks

Great question, I think the larger polycule will be interesting for tv so yes sensationalistic a bit. All the metamours don’t need to have close relationships or even know each other. And it doesn’t have to be 10 exactly. Just on the larger side. Thanks:)
 
Generally most polyamorists don't want to help out with sensationalistic TV shows... I mean, practicing healthy polyamory is hard enough. Being part of someone's casual prurient entertainment doesn't really help promote realistic polyamory much.

Is this going to be fiction, and you want to get with this poly group for them to be consultants for the writers to use as inspiration for a made-up soap opera, or an actual documentary?

Where is your film company based?

I am in a group of 4 main long-term partners. I am a hinge and so are my bf and my gf. Her bf isn't seeing anyone else, but my bf is in the early stages of dating a couple of women right now. So that's... 6. One of those women has a husband, and that husband has a gf, I believe. So that's 8. I know the name of the woman my bf is starting to date, but not her husband (my bf told me, I promptly forgot), much less the name of that guy's gf. The other woman my bf is attempting to "date" lives in another state and it's just online right now. I forget her name too. I don't bother to learn the names of people he dates until it's been going on for a while.

Oh yeah, he dated another woman earlier this year and last year, but she is a Domme, and has 3 subs and one sugar daddy kinda guy, so that would bring "my polycule" to... 13? I think they had 5 dates, but she hasn't been in touch with my bf since May. Too busy with her full time job and all those other guys. It was never a serious relationship anyway, more of a casual thing. So I wouldn't count them as part of the group, really. And to call us a "group" or a "polycule" is ridiculous, because I wasn't interested in meeting her. My bf never met her other partners, as it was all parallel kink stuff, as far as I know.

If anyone reading this boring list got excited, I don't know what to tell you. lol
 
I’m similar to Mags - I guess I’m in a large polycule but I don’t know everyone. I’m the hinge in a V with my two nesting partners, who aren’t romantically linked. My legal husband has a comet and she is in the dating scene but I have no idea how many or who. Not my business. I also have a boyfriend who is married and his wife has a couple who she sees frequently. So that’s 8+. I’ve met my boyfriend’s wife once or twice, and don’t know her partners’ names. I wouldn’t mind meeting them but I don’t consider them strongly connected to me.

So say me and Jane date Tarzan but we practice parallel polyamory and have nothing to do with each other at all. Why would we be more interesting to view than two other women who aren't dating the same person but are polyamorous?

You'd still see women being actively poly, just not with the same partner(s).

You're much better off seeking poly people who will show at least some of their dating life. That way, you may recruit some of the people they introduce you as other poly people in the show. You will have people who are partners and metamours eventually, but the show wouldn't be focused around one polycule.

That's far more representative of how the majority of us live.
