Polyamory: Julia Scott on her story "Poly Love"

from The Upshot · host The Upshot

Host Leah Rose talks with Julia Scott to talk about her article "Poly Love" from the February 2015 issue of San Francisco Magazine. Julia’s article looks at the group dynamics of polyamorous relationships and profiles married couples who manage to openly maintain relationships with outside partners, as well as people who are committed to multiple people at the same time. As if keeping up with one partner wasn’t hard enough, you can imagine, polyamorous relationships can get a little messy. Their three biggest pitfalls, Julia points out, are jealousy, time management, and lack of clarity. And while it may seem like poly people are just swingers in disguise, Julia found that many of the relationships are often more cerebral than sexy.
