Why is polyamory so looked down on?

Social norms. Same reason why people look down on anyone not straight. Not really anything rational or logical about it.


I don't judge and if it works for you that is great.

I personally have not seen many poly relationships that worked but that was because of the people involved not the relationship dynamic. lol

Things that challenge morale conventions always are - the worry that somehow they will unwind our social fabric . Let’s look at a crazy belief in the USA and Canada. Prior to Covid it was very difficult for restaurants to get permits for outdoor dining in front of the establishment. Sidewalk cafe? Never! Then Covid hits and it happens and now most have stayed that way, and guess what … it’s not a problem. People enjoy it. Society did not decay.

I don’t try in poly is for everyone but if it works for those involved and doesn’t hurt others, go for it. Who you love is your choice.

I don't know. Not looked down on by me. Had some great times in my past!

You're barely into your thirties, I wouldn't call that long term in any other relationship except for a polyamorous one. It's because they don't last or if the people are still together they can hardly be said to be since they spend all their time with their alternates. Pretty much always a sham when you examine them in depth.

People can’t accept the lack of jealousy in a polygamous relationship
There’s always someone thinking that someone is getting hurt in the equation

Personally, I'm not educated enough on the lifestyle to have an opinion, one way or another
