Abstract

Polyamory is a non-monogamous model for relationships that is characterised by the involved persons' living in love relationships with more than one person at a time with full knowledge and approval of all partners. Love of freedom, tolerance, flexibility, and responsibility are important prerequisites. The persons involved need a high level of maturity, good communication skills, and emotional strength. The archenemies of polyamory are jealousy and the tenures and claims for faithfulness and exclusivity often related to a monogamous ideal of love. Polyamory-promoting trends like neosexualities, metrosexuality, and postmodern relationships might contribute to polyamory as a possible future relationship model leading to a liberation from the constraints of monogamy.
