Uhhh idk? Lots of parents are equally as horrified that their child might be dating someone who's openly married as they would be finding out their kid is gay. Also gay ppl have the right to marry now, poly people do not. Also no poly representation in media, also

iirc rates of gay acceptance in the us is way higher than poly acceptance.
I personally feel significantly less safe as a poly person than I do as a bisexual

Being gay isn't for everyone either, but we still let them get married, and I would have asked anti-gay ppl to still support gay marriage.

Polyamory is not just sleeping around, I think I'm triggered now

Sure from an outside perspective, but I'm here from an experienced inside perspective to tell you that's not what's going on and that is a harmful misconception/stereotype. Country music is not about polyamory. I don't think I've ever heard any song that supports my lifestyle.

?? Are you poly? I absolutely consider people to be deeply squicked by polyamory. Did you see the reaction to that one single mainstream depiction of poly people on tv? I feel like I'm constantly getting hate for my polyamory and I've never once ever gotten it for my bisexuality

It seems extremely clear to me that in the modern day us, there is absolutely less acceptance and more stigma for polyamory compared to homosexuality

If you're a poly man, then they call you a weak cuck, unmasculine, whipped, a sub. They make fun of you for being unable to fight off another man or keep your woman. It really touched the masculinity nerve among conservatives.
