browngirlOn my local poly mailing list they're debating that old stinky chestnut, whether polyamorous people are more evolved/more self-aware/more evolved/somehow better than those who aren't poly.
Feh. I feel the desire to smack everyone involved, those on the 'yes' side for being idiots (I mean, hell, how do we even DEFINE "better"? And what would be the point?) and those on the 'no' side because, even though they're right (IMHO), the grease spot where the dead horse used to be is being beaten into paving at this point, and we just plain have more sensible things to talk about. Or, at least, we should (again, IMHO).
Man, I'm bitchy when I'm sick. This is almost fun.
