South African Polyamory

This is the umbrella website for polyamory in South Africa.

What is polyamory?

Polyamory literally means "many loves".

From the individual standpoint polyamory is the possibility of having love relationships with more than one boyfriend/girlfriend/lover/wife/husband at a time. Maybe these people also have relationships with your other loves, or with different people entirely. The important point is that everyone knows about and accepts everyone else involved. Honesty is key and communication is essential.

Want to know more about polyamory? A good place to start is by reading this FAQ, or, thanks to GBB, an Afrikaans translation of it. Also, try browsing these international and local links and interviews.
