#HappyPolydays: With this Hashtag a group of polyamorous people are leveling up raising awareness! Those 31 Instagram accounts got together!
One day, we were feeling alone in this world, the next day there was Social Media.
Can you believe it? When we were hiding for so many years, we actually believed we are the only throuple on earth! We believed that nobody could be as crazy as us living like this… and then… we realized we have to go public to make people understand, that it’s ok to live in the way we do. We wanted to save our son from prejudices. Going online was so scary and still, we wanted to go on with the best example for our son: Always be true to yourself and fight for what is right! Our polyamorous love and polyamorous family is right. We were glad to find a big community on Instagram that helped us feel normal.

Raising polyamory awareness in December
We are happy to announce that a part of the polyamorous community invited us to the polyamorous holiday December calendar. The idea was to have a calendar around the holidays but to also include all kinds of holiday spirits (regardless if they are religious or not). Polyamorous people can be religious and they can be not. Finally, we chose to get away from the religious 24 days and chose 31 days to go with.

My name is Natalie, I’m 24 years old and from southern Germany. I live in a polyamorous relationship with my two male partners for 4 years, and we are super happy together. We are fighting against prejudices about polyamory as strong as we can and are proud allies to our monogamous friends and the LGBTQIA+ Community. We are using the cold December days to re-organize and renovate our small apartment because love (and family planning) need space. Next year will be a big adventure and the next step into adulthood.

3) provide a Black perspective on the role that race plays in sex positive spaces.

My name’s Manu and it is my mission to connect with like-minded people online (and offline at some point), discuss topics, exchange knowledge and experience and just overall enjoy the vibe of being part of a community. Loving openly and freely under the umbrella of ethical non-monogamy with focus on polyamory is my way to go. Bringing awareness to and educating about different ways of having relationships is crucial to me, so that everybody finds what suits them best and isn’t stuck with an unfulfilling default setting. I’d love to connect with you, beautiful soul!

Hi, we are M.Ellery and Clara Reschke, the author and illustrator of “A Color Named Love” – the 1st children’s book with polyamorous parents represented! We did this book as we believe every child has the right to see themselves and their families in the pages of a book, creating empathy and a sense of belonging!

Hey there, I’m Alana the page creator/owner of Poly Inclusion! I started Poly Inclusion 3/2/19 to help my boyfriend (now fiancé) Terry get more comfortable and familiar with the ENM/Poly community. Now that we’ve reached a point where he feels safe and comfortable in a Non-monogamous relationship I decided to keep running the page in an effort to provide the community with a resource that proves education + pride but in a way that’s PG-13. That way even kids who are curious about our community, either for themselves or to become an ally, without being overexposed to extremely sexual content and adult situations. I hope to continue Poly Inclusion thanks to my wonderful long-time admins Miso, Zanthia and Mark, we hope to continue our mission of education and pride and reach as many wonderful people as we can. Maybe even help a few realize they are non-monogamous and not alone!

Polyamcomix is the artist’s life, thoughts, opinions, feelings, struggles and questions about polyamory presented in comics. The goal is to contribute to the representation of ethical nonmonogamy in an entertaining way but also brighten up everyone a little, because it’s easy to lose the humor sometimes.

Recently, we launched our podcast about modern love, life, and everything in between: And They Were Roommates. We are four 20-somethings who have been through a lot and we think our (potentially dubious) advice could be helpful for anyone!

I post memes and art that help share my queer and polyamorous experiences. I try my best to show the wholesome side of Polyam life while also showcasing the wonderful diversity within the ENM community. Mostly I just try to make folks smile/laugh and create a little space online where people feel seen and understood.

Hello, babes, I’m Emily, an openly polyam cis-female with two partners! My page is inclusive and talks about both the shame surrounding coming out as polyamorous, and what that can mean to your current, past, or future relationships; as well as accepting one’s pleasure. I stay open in speech, mannerisms, experiences, etc. so that you have permission to do the same.

Hi! I go by the name Tiny and when I created @kinkypolyamory, my intentions were to share my raw polyamorous kinky lifestyle in hopes of encouraging others to educate themselves on things that are normalized as taboo. I am extremely interactive with my followers and constantly hear their personal stories in my direct messages. I had NO idea how many people I’d be influencing to live openly and shamelessly. It has been a pleasure being a part of this community and creating a safe space to learn and ask for guidance when it’s needed.
