Twilight Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I use "queer" because my sexuality is more complex than simply "bi" would cover, and I don't feel that "pan" covers it right, either. I'm a woman who is physically attracted to other women and not men but married to a man I absolutely love. I don't even know where I would begin categorizing that if I tried. Homosexual and bi/heteroromatic? Quote Link to comment

Loren Wade Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Growing up in an ultra conservative Christian environment it definitely wasn't normal to everyone around me. As a Christian myself I can't believe how most of them treated me and other people with different sexualities and still claim to be following Christ's example. It's a shame how people turn God into a weapon instead of loving everyone like should be done.I grew up in a very similar environment. I understand almost completely (except I'm straight). I've gotten quite a bit of unloving responses even from family because I'm a Christian who thinks sexuality is irrelevant to ones faith. It IS quite sad that people turn god into a weapon instead of simply loving people like we've been taught.I think that category is called "Candace".I absolutely love this response. It's perfect. 2 Quote lobro's a druid? twitter | fb Link to comment

It's not the sex that would upset me, it would be the betrayal.Candace, I didn't share very well for most of my life, but underneath it was insecurity and belief that I wasn't good enough to love on my own merit, so without holding the power in my magical vagina (they are all magic yanno? ) and making sure they never had any other vaginas, then they wouldn't leave.

Not saying that is your reasoning, but it was mine, and seeing it for what it was, helped me change it Oh absolutely. My self esteem equates to a steaming pile of refuse and I have so many abandonment issues. One big thing for me is I had a guy cheat on me with 3 other girls. All of them found out about the others and then came and found me so it wasn't even a consensual poly thing for anyone and that left a pretty bad scar. And my mom left me and my sister with my dad when I was 5 which wasn't exactly a shining moment of self worth.

Varelse Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 I don't know what I think about polygamy. I think it's a loyalty matter, rather than an exclusivity one. In THEORY, I shouldn't care if my partner is with anyone else (if I'm OK with her, what does it matter? I don't see any problem if the two parts agree with that. I don't know if I would. I'll do if the alternative would be losing the people I love (I'm used to non-corresponded love, and I think it has had a lot of importance in my conception of what true love is), but I'll prefer being only with one person at a time (it's easier, and in my romantic world it's also better). But if I had a girlfriend and she proposes me having an open relationship I'll say yes.

Reluctant Amazon Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 I have no problem if people are non-monogamous voluntarily.

Frost of the Gloaming Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 from my limited pool of knowledge it seems like going from swinging to poly always ends in disaster; but that might just be the whole relationship winding down looking for something new death knell. Also I know people who are into OR's that have been together forever All I can say is "All I know is I don't know nothin" and as my grandmother says "Whatever floats your boat" 2 Quote Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........
