      However “-amory” implies romantic relationships. We’re talking sexual interactions, not love.

      When discussing animal social behaviours, “polygamy” is used.

        If you meant a man had several female partners, you had the right word. Polyamory doesn’t care whether the person in charge is male or female. Polygamy means a man had many women

        Sorry bro but this is a Reddit like platform, not an old school forum, people don’t care about 7 months old posts.
