polyamory

I've been pondering why the sex-positive culture tends toward polyamory. I happened to find this post/blog. http://practicalpolyamory.blogspot.com/2011/01/more-on-sex-addiction-in-...

I'm reading a new book, Sex at Dawn, and there's an article in 3 + parts at Psychology Today, which is series of questions and answers from the author, and a bit of a 'contest' to win a copy of the book by posing a question of the author. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/sex-dawn

There's an interview, of sorts (similar answers) at Salon http://www.salon.com/books/feature/2010/06/27/sex_at_dawn_interview/inde...

On the other hand - there's this link, http://www.nerve.com/content/a-ladies-man-and-shameless that the author linked to in the FAQ.

Either way, food for thought.

Hello.

I have this little question, would it be better if we have one long term partner with whom to explore and experiment? Or would sacred sex and intimacy work just as well with multiple partners? It seems some people like to have a couple of partners at the same time. Or just have not long lasting or on-off relationships.

I don't know why, but for some reasons it often makes me feel uneasy when someone mentions that they have more than one sexual partner, or that they are often intimate and sexual with friends. Maybe it's just my conditioning, I dunno.
