Mod Notice: This thread is for laughing at faggy Reddit soyboys, not deep discussions on polyarmory or whatever. Go to Deep Thoughts if you want that trash fire.
r/polyamory is what you get when you combine cuckoldry, SJWs, anti-SJWs, fake bisexuality, a complete lack of understanding of social norms, and overbearing smugness into one very unfortunate subreddit.
What Polyamory Is
Having romantic relationships with more than one person. It is not having a harem, an open relationship, cheating, or swinging. At least in theory; if you read r/polyamory, you will discover it is in fact all of those things. (With the arguable exception of swinging; sometimes people from r/swingers will come to r/polyamory and make seemingly deliberately inflammatory posts about how much they don't get polyamory.)
The Userbase
The vast majority of the users are white and will immediately argue with any black person who points out how racist poly people are. The majority of women are bisexual and the majority of men are straight even though this makes no statistical sense. They're also nerds who LOVE board games and conventions.
Why They're Cows
It's hard to think of any one particular reason other than their constant drama, so I thought I would provide a sampler platter of awful. The short reason is an inability to exist as normal adults in normal human society and ranting about this loudly all the time.
1. Not understanding that guys shouldn't hit on girls at a gay bar. Poly people disrespect lesbians a lot, but it's usually bisexual women; I just thought this was especially bad.
2. Not understanding why a woman would be upset that her husband, with whom she has children, wants to go live with his girlfriend.
They also said it's unreasonable to expect to be with someone forever.
3. Person A said that poly people are queer because they deviate from the norm, Person B said queer specifically refers to same sex attracted people, and then Person C posted...this.
4. A general inability to understand monogamy.
5. Just CONSTANT, UNENDING DRAMA.
I just picked this one basically at random, but there are hundreds upon hundreds of other posts like this and yes, they are all that long.
Like any nerd subculture, they have a variety of incomprehensible jargon.
