Myself, I'm a bi female, and seeing my man having sex with another woman gets me so hot!!

However, i feel very threatened by

It’s on par with eating, sleeping and breathing in terms of the purity of purpose. We are machines, in the end, built with the expressed purpose of fucking and spreading our genetic material.

Complications around sex are intellectual or ecclisiastical constructs. We “think” sex into

I agree with you that when I am feeling deeply connected with a man, the idea of sharing him with another woman can be titillating. However, it also can bring serious instability to the relationship, running the risk of emotional trauma and heart-break.

Thanks, GS. And thanks too for your sweet emails. They mean more to me right now than you know! Look forward to seeing you in Austin.

My wife and I have a relationship much like that which you describe… we consider it under the broad umbrella of ‘swinging’, although as you alluded to there’s about a dozen different definitions of what that is.

Our decision (and it was a conscious one, deliberated and discussed at length) was based largely on practical grounds: we love each other deeply, but

Thanks for a very deep comment, you asked a lot of questions that will help me and others get more in touch with what we really want.

For me, I’m going to love everyone. So the idea of sex that is emotionally unconnected doesn’t appeal to me, even in the context of polyamory. Perhaps you are right to say that doesn’t even count as polyamory, which means “many loves

But it’s a really poor starting point for any exploration in polyamory.
