When does the fucking come into play?
Anywho, IMO Poly also seems to be a choice made by people who consistently want to fuck other people (Hey, nothing wrong with that) but who also need a lofty, long winded philosophy in order to avoid being called promiscuous or slut shamed.
*A term by the way that I detests with most of but not all of the fibers of my being.
And as an avid weightlifter, I've got some thick ass fibers-
The Poly shows I listened to were mostly drenched in unacknowledged selfishness (interestingly enough mostly from the females) and a lot of chatter about how monogamy wasn't natural in the animal kingdom and is therefore not natural for us.
Now lookie here --
There are a lot of practices in the animal world that we would deem deleterious for homo sapiens.
*Imagine a guy who wanted a particular female and killing off her children from a previous partner so that he is ONLY providing for his offspring. Lions and Tigers... Don't know about Bears....
*What about a child who at the age of fourteen (old enough to physically fend for one self) waking up to find their mother gone and NEVER seeing her again. Happens with many parent / offspring relationships in the wild.
Calling monogamy UNNATURAL for humans just because animals don't practice it is ridiculous and it's no more or less valid a choice for a relationship between people than is polyamory.
Supposedly the strain of being monogamous is the biggest cause of breakups for 1 on 1 relationships yet all four couples that hosted podcasts on Polyamory broke up within about a year of having started their shows.
Whatever couplings work between consenting adults is Kool N The Gang, just don't act like your choice is better cause you ain't Sway and....
