Do a lot of people think that it is catching and that if you know a poly you will turn poly, "OMG I will catch teh polly amoros!" which is ridiculous because it's like saying, "OMG! I'll catch teh ghey!"
But on the other hand, I find my own thinking changing just knowing poly people, so maybe there is something to it? I find myself questioning monogamy and wanting to make it a conscious choice if in it and not just going along the path of least resistance. |
It's a personal preference. ^^ It's safe to be a monogamist, but if you can deal with the emotional back draft of being a polygamist it's not that bad too, just have constant checkups and protection.
Just because it's like a fad now that doesn't mean you'll follow it. Think, and decide for yourself. ^^
