I never said it was logical in practice.

Seriously considering the possibility, I think I would be more willing to engage in a polyamorous relationship with two men than a man and a woman. It's not entirely about preference either; I think I would be much more envious of another woman in a relationship.

Yup I'd much rather be in a polyamorous relationship with two ladies. Having another dude in there would make things kinda awkward for me. Also, you guys should read Stranger in a Strange Land.

I think the fact that most people find it so bizarre to be able to share themselves emotionally with more than one person has to do with how they were developed and raised to think of romantic relationships monogamously.

If a person was raised in a family where their parents were successfully in a relationship of say a husband and two wives, they would definitely be more open to the idea that it could work by using their parents as an example.

I noticed that sex has been brought into the discussion quite a bit and though I think most people who choose a polyamorous lifestyle typically engage in sex with multiple partners, a polyamorous relationship does not mean you do have sex with multiple partners. The definition seems to be more focused on the idea of being in love with multiple people. I believe this is possible and feel that in past, when I claimed that monogamy was the only lifestyle for me, I was incorporating some form of exclusivity with love.

So, what of the nature and science of what a polyamorous and monogamous lifestyle yields, sexually? When we look at other organisms, we can observe that, for the most part, they have multiple sex partners. This, I believe, ties into sub-categories of natural selection such as sexual selection (intersexual). If we eliminated the idea that we should only reproduce with one partner, how would this affect us as a species?
