And then people go ‘oh poly marriages shouldn’t be legal, people can abuse them and blah blah blah, unhealthy relationship structure blah blah blah’ and I’m just sitting here like ‘fuck you, straight, couple marriage can get abused too, stright couples can have unhealthy relationship structure, stop trying to make it a unique poly thing because it’s not, you’re full of shit.’ so much anger. Agree with all of the above.
