The poly vs open distinction is interesting because (anecdotally) I see some variation there between gay and lesbian relationships—it seems like gay dudes are more likely to be in a door-ajar couple, whereas the throuples I know are usually groups of lesbians!
Conversely, I don't see many poly gay dudes or door-ajar lesbian couples, and lesbians might be more monogamous on average.
- nerdjon 2y ago> I don't see many poly gay dudes From my experience. I only know a few poly gay men. I know far more gay couples in open relationships that have similar lines that I do when it comes to anything beyond that. I mean, for sure those lines get blurry. Things that you may traditionally associate with dating like cuddling on the couch at a party (just a party, not anything more) or similar things. But, there is still that line. I do wonder why that seems to be the case. I am reluctant to get into stereotypes to explain it...
- spondylosaurus 2y agoThis can't be the whole story, but probably significant that gay hookup apps are light-years ahead of lesbian hookup apps :P
- ted_bunny 2y agoSounds like you haven't heard of UHauling. It's a trope that many lesbians are highly relationship oriented and things get serious really quickly.
- spondylosaurus 2y agoOh, I've heard of it... and have even been accused of doing it, lol. But I'm not sure it counts as u-hauling if you talk about marriage within the first month and then take another decade to tie the knot :P

Discovered two staple of LGBT humour that are great, hope it doesn’t sound rambling for those who know it: Question: What does a lesbian bring on a second date? Answer: A U-Haul. —— Question: What does a gay man bring on a second date? Answer: What second date
