If polyamorous has a meta- category, what is it?
Edited on Mon Nov-20-06 02:16 PM by Rabrrrrrr
How do you define metapolyamorous?

Is it polyamorousness on a group level, such Polyamorous Group A is being polyamorous with Polyamorous Groups B and C?

If so, then what is meta-meta-polyamorousness? The set of Polyamorous Groups A, B, and C being polyamorous with the set of Polyamorous Groups D, E, and F and Polyamorous Groups G, H, and I, for example?

Can we have meta-meta-meta-polyamorousness?

And is polyamorousness itself a meta-level of something? Isn't it just meta-monogomy? And if so, shouldn't it be as morally and ethically acceptable, since it's just a larger category of monogomy, which is itself a meta-category of being alone?

10. "Orgy" probably covers most permutations.
For the rest, pre-, post- and periorgy fill in the rest of the blanks. "Commune" could also work.

11. No, orgy is entirely different
An orgy is a particular moment in time with a lot of people.

Polyamorous, including it's meta- states and sub-meta- states, is an attitude, a way of life, like being an engineer or a beer can collector.
