poly discourse seems to be complicated by fact that, AFAICT, the distribution of poly people is strongly bimodal wrt attractiveness/general sexual market value. like two entirely distinct poly populations

that's a bit strawman
Considered deleting tweet without the “fucked up” but left it. Lemme know if you see anyone saying “when it comes to kids, it strongly depends what type of monogamy you’re talking about”. I guess it would have to look like: “only loving stable couples should have kids” or sth

My only point is that to evaluate some claim like "polyamory provides a less stable home environment than monogamy" (which people say all the time) you should need to have a clear picture of what arrangement that even implied No one specifies, so it's uncritically assumed true

Pro-mono arguments benefit from the fact that there's this sort of shared conceptual default of a happy, stable, heterosexual two-person marriage whether or not that's even a modal mono relationship (it's not), the lack of clear picture of what poly even looks like doesn't help
