Polyamory isn't simply about sex, it just means you can find love with more than one person.
I think if you can say you have a wife, which implicitly tells your sexual preference and explicitly tells your legal family situation, then it's okay to add that you also have girlfriends or boyfriends as well.
- village-idiot 8y agoHonestly, a lot of my coworkers don’t really talk about their singular partners either. I maintain that discussions of such nature have to clear a “need to know” bar at work. There’s a lot of discussions about my relationship I’d be perfectly willing to have with friends that I would not discuss at work. Regardless, you absolutely should not be mentioning your relationship status in any way during an interview. Single, married, poly, whatever.
- true_religion 8y agoIf you are an interviewer and you go by Mrs., then you are already mentioning your relationship status. This is such a low bar to jump over that I feel it is safe.
- village-idiot 8y agoI go by <First Name>, not <Salutation> <Last Name>. Hooray for informality! I do wear a wedding ring though.
- bluntfang 8y ago>Polyamory isn't simply about sex, it just means you can find love with more than one person. Completely disagree. Every person I know who identifies as poly has their own definition of what that actually means, and many of them do not include "love" in their definition.
