Polyamory does not imagine relationships without rules; rather, we imagine that there is more than one set of rules to which we can aspire. The virtue is not in the particular freedom of emotion, or even of sex, but in the ability to decide these things for yourself (although sex, set free of self-conscious hang-ups, guilt, or expectation is… something). One of the chief appeals of polyamory is in its honesty, in its equitable negotiation between partners for the best arrangement, in its informed consent.
