PolyAmory

In its most basic form, it is defined as honest consensual non-monogamy. While some decline to allow that Swinging is part of PolyAmory, the basic definition still applies. You will find, though, that there are as many definitions of PolyAmory as there are people practicing it. PolyAmory must have as a basic more than 2 people in the relationship. Not all participants need be involved with every other participant, nor is co-housing a requirement.
PolyAmory incorporates PolyAndry (many husbands), PolyGyny (many wives), PolyFidelity (no outside relationships), "open" or "closed" to new partners, fidelitous or not, and many variations of the above.

UC Berkeley Student : OMG I GOT INTO BERKELEY I CAN SPEND ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE MORE MONEY FOR AN UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE. Well, at least they have wonderful research departments in underwater basket weaving...it's worth it for sure!!

Cal Poly Student : Hmmm, I wonder what the Urban Dictionary page for cal poly says....why are there so many berkeley students ranting on here, man they must be compensating for something because I dont give a shit what the UC berkeley urban dictionary page says.

UC Berkeley student again : BUT BERKELEY IS RANKED 21 ON WORLD NEWS REPORT AND CAL POLY ISNT EVEN RANKED...

Cal Poly Student : you're stupidity is a testament to how poor of a filter uc berkeley's admissions are....cal poly is a FOUR YEAR UNIVERSITY AND IS THEREFORE NOT CATAGORIZED UNDER NATIONAL UNIVERSITIES PAGE. What a poor level of observation on your part as to how the U.S. News ranks colleges....and yet you're so willing to talk

Polyamory

The practice, state or ability of having more than
one sexual loving relationship at the same time, with the full
knowledge and consent of all partners involved.

This is the definition used by California polyamorist Morning Glory Zell, who coined the term in the early 1980's.
Polyamory differs from adultery because all the partners know about each others' lovers, so there is not secrecy or betrayal.
