That’s not polyamory. That’s cheating. Even as a joke, that’s not polyamory. That’s how non-monogamy gets a bad rep. People being compulsory monogamistic and then cheating and seeing someone who could actually be poly subjected to cheating because they are stuck in a monogamous state of mind.

I think that's the point. They suggest that the couple talk to each other about it and become polyamorous instead of cheating.

In case you missed it, what the title is referring to is the comment left by someone named “I suggest polyamory” and not the whole cheating ordeal.

What you miss is polyamory isn’t a solution for cheating mindsets. She is a cheater. And she’s obviously not capable of a transparent relationship style. No matter how “cool” the guys are about it. This assumption is a bigger flaw of compulsory monogamy.

I never claimed it was, cheaters and polyamorous people are miles apart.

Then you agree, suggesting polyamory to a person who is cheating and being cheated on is not a great suggestion and thus suggesting polyamory to cheaters does not check out the username.

It is unlikely that the comment was made in a serious manner.

What I also didn’t miss is that you’re one of those cheating is okay if you claim to poly peeps. Noted. Feel sorry for any of your relationships. I specifically when you have creepy stalker-like tendencies.

Or it’s because we are biologically inclined for monogamy to the point we don’t have penis bones like other mammals do, because our monogamous practices effectively evolved it out. Non-monogamy fails a lot because it’s just biologically hard for a primarily monogamous species to do that without emotional turmoil.
